Composer Eric Schorr says that the poems he chose for the compositions on this recording were ones that immediately resonated with him emotionally and musically. The range of their styles and subject matter necessitated a varied musical vocabulary. Always lyrical, the music veers from romantic to jazz to chanson to bossa nova, and Schorr expanded the palette of sound by adding a chamber-sized acoustic orchestra to his original scoring for voice and piano.
Schorr composes music for theater, television, and film, as well as art songs. He is a recipient of a Japan-United States Arts Program Fellowship and Opera-Musical Theatre Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Critically acclaimed singers Eve Gigliotti, Jesse Darden, and Michael Kelly are the featured performers on this recording.
