This work is based on three medieval English song fragments, the first, “Ich am of Irlande,” an invitation to dance, the second, “Of every Kinne tre,” a parallel between the hawthorn and the lover, the third, “Maiden in the more lay,” describing a spirit who lives among the flowers. The viola adds an important dimension to the work, from graceful backdrop to lively playmate.
