Description
'Motion' is a single song based on a poem by Daniela Nunnari. The poem seems ambiguous: on the surface it might be an affectionate love poem, but there are also darker, potentially sinister undercurrents, so I chose to set the whole text twice, to re-tell the story with different meanings.
'Motion' was composed in 2013, commissioned by Late Music and is available in versions for mezzo soprano, tenor or baritone (as on this recording).
Duration: 4 minutes.
