Much of the poetry of Sara Teasdale has been set to music. Jonathan Adams' music fits well with her poetry: gentle dissonances that resolve eloquently with depth and satisfaction. As with much of her poetry, the reader is pleasantly surprised to discover at half way through the piece that this is a love poem. Adams matches the music artfully. Great for high school and college.
