Four Japanese Verses, Op. 2

This is the Score for Bent Sorensen’s 2001 composition Six Songs composed for Mezzo-Soprano and Violin. Sorensen has set four verses by Japanese poet Ono No Komachi and two by the Korean poet Hwang Chin-i in a typically dramatic and colorful style. The music compounds the beautiful and passionate imagery of each text which are all short verses loaded with meaning. 'Six Songs' are written for Lore Lixenberg and David Alberman
