Beschreibung
In early 1995, I composed The Ballad Singer and Echo for my friend and Yale classmate, baritone Robert Kennedy. Both texts share a theme of lost love and the songs can be paired in recital. Structured in ABA form, The Ballad Singer alternates rowdy sections with dreamy recollections, leading to a frenzied return of the opening theme, and closing with a sigh of resignation.
