The Sunset Stops on Cottages

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

Here a new-made song from the poetry of Emily Dickinson. The music is jaunty, and I think that fits the language of the poem as I read it, but best as I can determine this is a poem that fits into the genre my wife calls "Cozy Gothic." Gothic? What? There's sunsets, mornings, cottages in this little 8-line poem made into a tidy 2 minute song. Don't you mean Cottage-core?  Nope.  Listen to this poem, now song, again. I think the cottages are graves.  I'll write more about this at our blog and archives later this week. The Parlando Project takes various words (mostly literary poetry) and combines them with original music in differing styles. We've done over 850 of these combinaitons, and you can hear any of them and read about our encounters with the words at our blog and archives located at frankhudson.org
