About
These songs were in 1979 for the tenor, John Miley. That year he gave their first performance and later recorded them for Radio New Zealand Concert. The Fairburn poems I have selected reflect different aspects of love; infatuation, vulnerability, frustration, whimsy and regret.
David Griffiths
