Tann, Hilary - Songs of the Cotton Grass

for soprano and oboe (or other melody instrument) Four songs set to texts by the Welsh poet Menna Elfyn, Songs of the Cotton Grass are in turn tender, reflective, lively, and full of the imagery of landscapes ranging from the open, high moorland of South Wales to the cotton plantations of the USA's deep South.
