Thomas Hardy and Composers
from The Past & I: Thomas Hardy and Music
In this second episode we explore the suite of arrangements of songs setting Hardy poetry from across 100 Years presented on the album. Is there something uniquely musically enticing in Hardy’s poems? Why, when critics haven’t always been kind toward Hardy’s poems, have composers consistently turned to them? What does it mean to arrange some of these songs for new instrumentation? https://orcd.co/thepastandi Arthur Keegan David Fay Rachel Hodgins Lotte Betts-Dean James Girling Ligeti Quartet Delphian Records
