(English trans. of the original Bengali texts by Edward C. Dimock, Jr. and Denise Levertov.) " Nowhere in poetry," writes the composer, "have I found a more beautiful union of purity and sensuality or a more immediate projection of the ecstasy and joys, anguish and pain of human love..." For colleges, conservatories, studios, amateur& professional performers. Difficult.
