A change of pace for this Project: I adapted a short story by the British master of the subtle supernatural into a 10-minute audio play. So, sit back and enjoy as The Parlando Project Theatre of the Air presents Walter de la Mare's story of a man with a problem: he can see something past the Samhain veil.

The Song of Finis 1:47

1:47

When it comes to the poetic-spooky presented though inference and understatement, Walter de la Mare is a master; so I wanted to get this poem of his turned into a song in time for our Halloween series.

3d ago31:29

31:29

Following the bye week, Purdue prepares for Northwestern...who has lost two-straight. Purdue needs to win to keep Walters on life support, in my opinion...and NU needs a win to keep their bowl hopes alive...something's gotta give.Von Bleav + Boiled Sports

The Puca 2:32

2:32

Our Halloween series continues. Irish poet Joseph Campbell has a twist on the idea of a goblin spirit casting a spell on a human. In this encounter, a downhearted man comes upon a puca, and the human's dissatisfaction and weariness changes the goblin. I came upon this poem, and now I've changed it into a song. The Parlando Project takes words (most…

Here's the next song in our Halloween series, this time with words I adapted from a poem by Margaret Widdemer. Just like last time, someone's at the door, but this time they let themselves in and the song is the story of what they find inside.

Here's a poetic narrative that you could call : started early, took my shaggy dog. A storm builds to a deluge and then ends with an escape, all the while, a rock band with three guitars pelts the music. Emily Dickinson rocks!

Nature Can Do No More Blues (after a poem by Emily Dickinson) 2:04

27d ago2:04

2:04

Here I take inspiration from a late, short poem by Emily Dickinson and redo it as a bottleneck-slide guitar Blues. My sense of her original gnomic poem was that Dickinson was writing of Autumn's end of the growing season with the knowledge that this close of a yearly cycle is a phase that will be followed by another Summer. The Parlando Project pre…

I'm celebrating Emily Dickinson this week, and this is a poem, extraordinary even for her, the tragic story of a faithful gun.

Another Emily Dickinson setting where my music seeks to bring out the strangeness that sits in-between some of her poems' lines. This lesser-known Dickinson poem might be paired with her "Because I could not stop for Death." She's singing here before the carriage arrives.

At the Threshold 2:58

Late 19th century American poet Richard Hovey translated many French Symbolist poems; but this sonnet, published in a posthumous collection, is apparently Hovey's own work in French under the title "Au Seuil." Hovey's poem considers dying and the possibility of a judgement and afterlife. I translated Hovey's French into English for this musical per…

Here's a short love poem by written for the 1894 Songs From Vagabondia by Richard Hovey. This book found favor with young men in its day for eschewing moral uplift and earnest toil to write instead of wine, women, and joyful travels. The Parlando Project combines various words (usually literary poetry) with original music in differing styles. We've…

Labor Day weekend in America is often the occasion for end of Summer activities. In this poem from the 1894 Songs from Vagabondia, poet Richard Hovey rows down a river in Maine connecting a lake and ponds. What does he find? The sense that Summer feels like a dream.

The Mote: A 19th Century SF Prose Poem 3:31

2M ago3:31

3:31

Pioneering Canadian poet Bliss Carman included this fantastic prose poem in his breakthrough 1894 collection "Songs from Vagabondia." Is it the slightly intoxicated wonder-talk of two tipsy young men, or the account of two angels playing with the universe? That Carman seems to have designed that blurring makes for an interesting 19th century SciFi …

Pioneering Canadian poet Bliss Carman's break-through collection was called Songs of Vagabondia, a popular 1894 book which extoled the adventurous and sensuous life.

O But My Delicate Lover 2:27

3M ago2:27

2:27

Ancient Greek poet Sappho's poetry survives in fragments and spaces, but in 1904 a Canadian poet imagined Sappho's poems as if they were complete. The audacity of that project undertaken by Bliss Carman must be conceded, but the results can be judged on their own merits. The Greeks said that Sappho's poems were sung with lyre music, and the Parland…
