A song cycle of 5 songs for soprano and piano on poems of Eugene Field: 1. At Play - 2. The Night Wind - 3. A Valentine - 4. "Booh!" - 5. The Brook. The music attempts to match the pretentiousness of the poems to preserve the sense of innocence they possess. Moderate difficulty, suitable for advanced students on.
