John Williams makes references to poetry in his Horn Concerto, while Gustav Mahler set the texts of old Chinese poems directly to music in Das Lied von der Erde. This is ideal company for the singer Fleur Barron, a graduate of comparative literature studies who sees the propagation of diverse cultural influences and the merging of traditions as a long-term goal.
