Sedition

from Parlando - Where Music and Words Meet · host Frank Hudson for the Parlando Project

No fair-minded person would say the thoughts in this piece's lyrics justify its title, but then that's part of the point it makes.*   Edmund Vance Cooke wrote this in 1917, and after all these years I thought it might be appropriate to make a song out of it for today. The Parlando Project combines various words (mostly literary poetry) with original music in differing styles. This one has wailing electric guitars, but even I can't tell you what the next one will sound like. We've done almost 850 of these combinations, and you can any of them and read about our encounter with the words at our blog and archives located at frankhudson.org *Cooke says in his lyric after all "you can't convict conviction."
