THERE IS SWEET MUSIC
for mixed choir and piano
Music: Matteo Magistrali
Text: Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-1892)
There is sweet music here that softer falls Than petals from blown roses on the grass, Or night-dews on still waters between walls Of shadowy granite, in a gleaming pass; Music that gentlier on the spirit lies, Than tir'd eyelids upon tir'd eyes; Music that brings sweet sleep down from the blissful skies. Here are cool mosses deep, And thro' the moss the ivies creep, And in the stream the long-leaved flowers weep, And from the craggy ledge the poppy hangs in sleep
A tender poem with sweet images and a dream flavour.
Fresh and melancholic, light with nostalgic tones, from a time gone by or never existed. A little paradise lost among memories and desires...
