While watching a beloved child slumber, a parent contemplates those things that sleep brings. a release from the drama of the day, deep cycles of breath, and complete authenticity. Composer's Note. The small, disciplined form of "Sleep Song" - nine 9-syllable lines - is one which my friend and poet Ann Silsbee explored throughout her intimate book, "Naming the Disappeared. " What captured my musical imagination was the rhythm of breathing reflected in this poem, a rhythm of which singers are viscerally aware. What captured my spirit was nearly the same thing. the beauty, power and vulnerability of breath itself, that most basic sign of life. Range. d'-g".
