I - The Vagabond
II - Mad Tom Tatterman III - Mamble IV - Two Ships V - The Toll-Gate House Ever since finding a copy of poems called Tides by John Drinkwater in a little old Malvern bookshop one rainy Sunday I have loved his poetry and found it ideal to set to music. This song-cycle for tenor voice and piano sets five poems and includes the Two Ships, which is dedicated to the memory of a dear college friend who tragically committed suicide. |
