Having read Theodore Roethke’s “The Waking” and deciding to set it to music, led me to the discovery that many other poets have written using the same ‘villanelle’ form. Over a few weeks, I wrote three more, setting villanelles by Harvey Stanbrough, Sylvia Plath and Edward Arlington Robinson. These are now collected in one score.
