The poem to which this piece of music is set turns the concept of beauty on its head for about 4/5 of it. The remainder if the poem veers off in an entirely unexpected direction of gods and stars. The music reacts to the poem by way of ornamented melodies, optional improvisation heartily recommended by the composer, and homoponic passages. "The harmonic structures of the piece gets knottier as the text progresses to the penultimate statement." - Robert Schuneman
