In Memoriam, A.H.H., Op. 80 by Ryan LeGrand.
This song cycle, written for Baritone and Piano, is a setting of portions of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poetry cycle In Memoriam, A.H.H. which was written over a period of about 20 years. Tennyson's daughter's fiance was killed and Tennyson wrote the cycle of about 150 poems over 20 years as a grieving process. In this cycle, I've chosen parts of 5 poems that go through the stages of grief, including the famous Tis' better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all. The complete cycle in approximately 25-30 minutes in duration. The piano and vocal score is 33 pages.
1. Prologue
2. Fair ship, that from the Italian shore
3. My own dim life
4. Tis' better to have loved and lost
5. Forgive
Range for voice: (F2 optional) G#2 - F4
