Fidelity is Leisner's contemplation of a long-term monogamous relationship, built upon eight selected poems which reflect various aspects. The cycle imparts a range of moods and styles, and the accompaniment is not overly demanding. Originally written for two male voices, the tenor part may be substituted with soprano. For advanced performers. Dur.: 25'
