Motet for Sylvia

I've had this music/words combo in my head since May. This is a little motet on a line from one of Sylvia Plath's early poems, found in a letter. I'd like to write some more secular motets like this on Sylvia Plath texts. She wrote some beautiful things in her diary and her letters.

  1. This is stunning! Because it's nearly 100% homophonic, it could sound amazing with a vocal harmoniser where you sing one line and play the other notes on a keyboard - a la jacob collier or imogen heap
