Lane, Liz - Welcome to the Weather

The poem Welcome to the Weather reflects the Danish culture of ‘hygge’ which has recently become popular in Britain. It was originally part of the song cycle Brightest Day a Cloud, featuring a selection of poems about the weather and travel, and commissioned by Danish trio Corde di Gioia. The poems were jointly chosen by the composer and performers, who regularly give concerts both in their home country of Denmark and the United Kingdom.
