Programme Note

In April 1981 Denise Hulford ‘discovered’ Sam Hunt’s poem DREAMS and was immediately impressed with the very descriptive words which became an inspiration for this setting of the poem for Mezzo-Soprano and Flute. As a composer and singer Denise Hulford has been fascinated by the voice and its potential for manipulation whilst being able to blend with other timbres.
