The Violet (1967) - piano & vocal by Philip R Buttall (PRB Music)

This is a short setting for Soprano and Piano of a poem by Sir Walter Scott. It was originally written for my dear mother, who took many lead roles in local operatic societies in Devon, and sadly passed away on Easter Sunday, 2004. Its range is from middle C to top A flat, but could be transposed, if necessary.

On the attached MP3 file is the original recording we made in 1976, on cassette - happier days!

Touching
What a nice gift for your mother! A very sweet poem set to a lyrical melody and gripping harmonies. This would make a gem of a piece for anyone's recital. Very well crafted.
