These four songs are settings of texts from the poetry of Rupert Brooke. The connecting theme in all songs is the night - the sunset in the first song; a night journey on a train in the second; An elegiac view of the earth and the stars; and a strange dream in the last song. The songs were premiered at Stanford in 1998 (listen to part of the opening song). In 1999 they were performed in the opening concert of the Musica Nova, Sofia festival.
