Flowers of the Soul was commissioned by Ms. Jane Wait to commemorate the renovation of the beautiful rose gardens at YADDO, the artists' colony in Saratoga Springs, New York. Having been in residence at YADDO some years ago as a young composer, it was a special treat to have a new work premiered there in the beautiful music room next to the rose gardens. I have always found Emily Dickinson's poetry to be lyrical and inspiring, and love the unique way in which she views the world through her beautiful imagery. The last poem in the cycle is a very early poem, and is quite different in style from her later work. Written with an underlying dance rhythm, it is also longer than all of the previous three poems combined." -Henry Mollicone
