LOVE AND LOSS

A cycle of five contemporary, but accessible, songs of one to two pages each, includes: I. Morning glories; II. Lightning; III. Dawn; IV. Awake in the moonlight; and V. Memory.

“Toby Tate has the unique ability of reaching the deepest part of one’s soul, whether through his poetry or his music, or both.” Phyllis Bryn-Julson

“Few contemporary songs are so well written for the singer as the five songs for high voice, ‘LOVE and LOSS,’ with words and music by Toby Tate. They are direct, exprssive and interesting in both melody and harmony. Students and artists who are seeking music by American composers will certainly want to consider this new contribution to music with English text.”
