Description

Al ver mis horas de fiebre is the first line of Rima LXI by Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer (1836-1870), Spain’s best known and most universally admired poet of the nineteenth century. I adopted this line (‘Seeing my feverish hours’) as the title and perharps encompassing theme of my piece.

Its three movements, all inspired by separate Rimas and intended as musical renderings of the literary images and emotions present in the poems, explore some of the altered, drug-like states caused by romantic love.Whether wind, sea, light, sound, or even death itself, all are transfigured and left in turnmoil by the addictive, irresistible, unfulfilled attraction to the beloved.
