Chanson d'Automne

Autumn is here, with its long violin sobs, and this solo soprano art song captures the melancholy mood. Michael J. Oczko sets a French text that speaks of a heart wounded by a monotonous languor, recalling past days and weeping. The singer is swept away by the harsh wind, like a dead leaf. This piece is suitable for a recital, perhaps in late autumn, offering a poignant reflection on the season's mood and the passage of time.
