Three Songs for a Lady
for Soprano and Piano (or Chamber Ensemble)
Three settings of Maya Angelou in a jazzy style, with moods ranging from tragic to the erotic. Poor Girl has a tense and pent–up energy, while They went home is a sad bluesy lament. To finish, Be my baby is a lightly humorous and sensual song.
