The
California Romances for soprano, clarinet and piano grew out of my deep reverence for German Romantic Lieder. I tried to be true to the sense of those remarkable 19th century compositions by using more structured poetic styles; giving the instruments as important a role as the voice in expressing the poem; and celebrating the beauties of Nature. — Nancy Bachmann, composer
The Serenade:The classical sonnet structure highlights the experience not of the serenade singer but rather of the beloved listener to his wooing. We follow her dreams and drowsy awakening to California’s romantic bloom-covered hills and valleys. Â
 Autumn Equinox:An ancient, mysterious Redwood forest is the setting for this song of longing at the balance time between summer and winter.
Â
The Pacific is Playful Today:A cheerful romp at the seashore with an even happier ending.
