Two Songs of Spring
2018
The Slovenian composer Katarina Pustinek Rakar (b. 1979) studied music theory, oboe, singing, and composition in Ljubljana. She is actively involved with the best Slovenian choirs, is a member of the Slovenian Philharmonic Choir, and teaches sol-fa and music theory at the Ljubljana Conservatory. Her compositions comprise mainly vocal music (children’s songs, works for youth, women’s, male voice, and mixed choirs), and she is regularly commissioned to write for these groups. In 2018 she became fascinated and inspired by poems by the English writer Christina G. Rossetti (1830–1894). She soon set some of her poems, including the two featured here. Another Spring is lyrical and expressive, and The First Spring Day a very lively choral piece.
