'''Composer's Note:''' The setting of 'Laughing Song' has been a variation of a setting that was originally made for Hermann Hesse's poem 'Blumen nach einem Unwetter'. On second thoughts I have decided to keep the music exclusively for the original poem that inspired the music to come alive. Therefore the pdf- and mp3 files of 'Laughing Song' are not available anymore. At the moment (October 2012) I am working on a brandnew tailormade setting. I hope to be able to publish it on CPDL in November.

Composer's Note: Laughing Song has a new setting (November 2012). The old setting of this song had been a variation of a setting that was originally made for Hermann Hesse's poem Blumen nach einem Unwetter. On second thoughts I decided to keep the music exclusively for Hesse's poem and create this new version espescially made for Blake's poem.
