It was one of his most popular madrigals, as well as one of the most internationally famous songs of the period. It is apparently based on John Dowland’s “Flow, my Teares”. Like Dowland’s lyrics, these lyrics express an intense melancholy of someone whose happiness has been abruptly shattered and desires to not be saved from this dark despair. The speaker wishes his death by drowning in his despair, in his tears. The expression of melancholy, and notions of darkness, neglect, Time’s cruelty, spiteful age, were themes used by Elizabethan songwriters to prefigure the stark inevitability of death, and it remained a prominent feature of English literature and music in the time of Elizabeth I and Shakespeare.

Swan. Foreward: Santiago Veros wrote Almas de Barro at the age of 19, dedicating it to a young woman who at the time was shy and with whom he rarely talked. This piece intimately describes the moments during music theory classes when the two would look at each other continuously, youthfully, and silently, as if unable to do anything else. The piece, written as a counterpoint assignment, was intended to be performed during music theory class as a declaration of love. The idea was to make a musical representation of those moments. The piece begins without words, the voices representing youthful looks. They come together and occasionally dodge each other to highlight the discomfort ...    less

Faraway centuries, on the shores of Estonia there once began a song. In the language of mothers, the spirit of fathers it was carried across to us. In sonorous language, in the spirit of a million it lives on. This song began in a dusky time and was born from the work of voiceless ones. This song was born in a lowly house and it rose as an oath in the night. . A powerless clan began listening, the song was good for the soul, for it spoke a heavenly story, that freedom must come to them. And the powerless clan awoke, and felt the heads on their shoulders. This song will not die, nor this story, this song for us is good. I stepped out to start my voice, ringing on the rocky hillside, lifting up the celebration, cheering up the ring of friends. I know my friend...    less
