| Abstract: | "This document explores "Four Dickinson Songs", "Between the Bliss and Me", and "One Bee and Revery", by American song composer Lori Laitman. These song cycles are all settings of Emily Dickinson poetry, Laitman's most frequently set poet. This document examines themes found within Dickinson's poetry according to a biographical and historical context and evaluates their presence within the poetry chosen for Ms. Laitman's cycles. Most specifically, it provides a study for these cycles through the exploration of Dickinson's poetry, interviews with Lori Laitman, and attention to musical elements specific to each song. Furthermore, it provides a compilation of all Lori Laitman's settings of Emily Dickinson poetry. This document gives valuable information for performing these song cycles, guiding performers to a deeper interpretation."--Page ii. |
