For Tenor and Piano.In the Mist was written whilst I was a Fellow at the Tanglewood Music Center in the summer of 2008. I had the opportunity to work with the poet Lloyd Schwartz setting one of his existing poemsto music. The piece was written for Samuel Reade Levine (Tenor) and Tatiana Vassilieva (Piano) and first performed by them in the Chamber Music Hall Tanglewood in July 2008.    - HelenGrime

In 1918-19 Gian Francesco Malipiero wrote a collection of seven songs commonly known as Sette Canzoni. They were initially intended as a stand-alone work but became incredibly popular when they wereincluded as the second act of the composer’s opera L’Orfiede. However in recent years the collection has come to be recognised in its own right as one of the composer’s masterpieces.Like all of the seven songs the fifth Serenata is designed as an individual mini-opera. Scored for a solo Tenor with Piano accompaniment it tells the story of a young lover serenading his beloved. At the same time unknown to him shesits inside lamenting the death of a relative.Serenata has been translated from the original Italian into French by Henry Prunières and into English by Edwin Evans.
