KUBLA KHAN by Samuel Taylor Coleridge SATB 6:40

This famous poem is among the most exotic in all of English literature. Coleridge (1772-1834) became

addicted to opium, and the fantastic visions he experienced are depicted in Kubla Khan. I have tried to

reflect these many moods in their abrupt changes and clashing emotions. Animato, difficult – 6:40.

 

All my compositions are written in Sibelius, so fully profesional scores and mp3 demo files are available.

 

Please look at a list of some of my other choral works on my ChoralNet page.

 

Thank you, James Johnson
