General noteThese four songs are fragments of two projected song cycles written between 1954 and 1958. They are all suitable for mezzo-soprano voice, and three of them for baritone (Hands, Eyes, and Heart should be sung by a woman). Dynamics in parentheses do not appear in the original manuscript, and have been suggested by Roy Douglas.
General note"Menelaus" dedicated to Keith Falkner.
