For mixed chorus (SSSAAA) Cover illustration by the composer.
Texts by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and music by Edward Cowie.
Fusing texts of different languages and phonic material, Gesangbuch is a symphonic poem for voices and instruments in four movements. Each movement evokes one of the four seasons through a weft of intricate tonal and non-tonal layers. A wonderful challenge for a professional or semi-professional choir.
