The poems of Dylan Thomas are famous because they touch the depth of the heart. Nick Strimple's setting of this poem has special personal meaning following the death of his brother. This poem honors the passion of creating art in a dramatic way. The ostinato pattern Strimple incorporates beautifully grounds the piece and concludes it with lingering and longing. The music is conceived by the text and does so masterfully with a piano accompaniment that is more reminiscent of an orchestration. An excellent concert piece for advanced high school and college ensembles.
