Also includes excerpt from "The Country of Marriage" by Wendell Berry.From the composer:
"The texts for Nightsongs are by Eichendorff, with a single fragment by the American poet Wendell Berry which originally inspired the piece. Although I didn't start out with the idea of setting the Eichendorff poems—that would have been too intimidating a prospect—at a certain point they seemed to, in a rather natural way, articulate (or "populate") the musical ideas triggered by the complex of allusions in the Berry verse, the first of a longer poem entitled The Country of Marriage."
