Orpheus with his lute
Orpheus with his lute
Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872 - 1952)
A beautiful song by Vaughan Williams, written relatively early in his career, with some strangely Baroque-sounding musical language - enjoy!
Orpheus with his lute made trees
And the mountain tops that freeze
Bow themselves when he did sing:
To his music plants and flowers
Ever sprung; as sun and showers
There had made a lasting spring.
Every thing that heard him play,
Even the billows of the sea,
Hung their heads and then lay by.
In sweet music is such art,
Killing care and grief of heart
Fall asleep, or hearing, die.
(William Shakespeare, 1564--1616)
