David Brunner: At The Round Earth's Imagined Corners SATB

Three Sonnets of John Donne
3. At the round earth's imagined corners

For mixed choir (SATB) a cappella.

The writings of John Donne are expressions of one man's wrestling with human nature, illness, pain, doubt, faith, trust and hope. The texts of movements one and three are taken from the Holy Sonnets of 1609-10. The second movement's text was written during Donne's illness of 1623. All of this English metaphysical poet's words are highly imaginative, ecovative, personal and heartfelt. The Three Sonnets of John Donne are intended to be performed together without pause.
