Of Darkness and Light

Song Collection

Of Darkness and Light is a song cycle composed by David Leisner "for tenor, violin, oboe and piano, 2002 - 5 poems by Wendell Berry about darkness and light, written in the Vietnam era and which have an equal resonance with our own post 9/11 malaise, are set to music in a diatonic tonal language which passes from thoughtfulness to passion to anxiety and ends in beauty."
