The sheet music for contemporary virtuoso composer Nico Muhly's So Many Things arranged for Mezzo-Soprano and Piano Accompaniment. So Many Things was commissioned by a number of institutions including The Los Angeles Philharmonic Association UC Berkeley and Carnegie Hall. Lasting around 15 minutes Muhly has set three poems to this wonderful music including a lengthy narrative poem by Joyce Carol Oates and two translations of C.F. Cavafy by Daniel Mendelsohn. Muhly has brilliantly managed to take the emotion of the words and replicate them through music creating an astonishingly movingaccompaniment that not only reflects the lyrical sentiment but complements it. He states that the Piano moves between skittish and ostinato relentless but often pausing for an effective break in the musical narrative. With drones and palindromes from the Piano the Voice leaps between intervals creating a dynamism that creates uncertainty rather than resolve much like the poetry.

Three Songs To Sonnets By Shakespeare-Ed Hughes' Against That Time - Three Songs To Sonnets By Shakespeare for Mezzo Soprano Viola and Piano.'Against That Time...Against My Love is a song cycle comprising of three related settings of Shakespeare sonnets(numbers 49 63 and 126). The sonnets are drawn from a collection of 154 of William Shakespeare's poems on love beauty and mortality first published together in 1609.The three sonnets chosen for this sequence meditate particularly on the effect of time upon the appearance of the beloved.In setting these extraordinary lines I let their rhythms permeate the melodic writing for the singer. Theviola and piano act as a kind of echo chamber for the poet's very direct and intimate thoughts. The poems seem both timeless and modern in attitude and perceptions; the music's harmonies though often tonally clear are occasionally fractured and in tension like the many images in thesepoignant texts.' - Ed Hughes
