Two Songs of Walt Whitman was completed during the final weeks of the composers life. Goodbye My Fancy is a lovers farewell, and is set as a flowing barcarolle. Here the Frailest Leaves offers an uncompromisingly austere setting. The musicians intone soft, slow, rising phrases. Out of the close counterpoint, a luminous E-flat major triad provides a benedictory conclusion.
