Uruppförande av Rolf Martinssons Orchestral Songs, op.82a, till dikter av Emily Dickinson

Och det var Anne Sofe von Otter som sjöng. Songs of Love (3), Songs of Nature (3) & Songs of Life (4).
Några av dikterna fastnade. (Jag gillar Dickinson.) T ex; If you were coming in the Fall, / I´d brush the Summer by / With half a smile, and half a spurn, / As houswives do, a Fly. / If I could see you in a year, / I´d wind the months in balls -- / And put them in separate Drawers, / For fear the numbers fuse --
