Composer: Huub de Lange

Description: Compositions on poems by William Blake (1757-1827).

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 The old setting of this song had been a variation of a setting that was originally made for Hermann Hesse's poem Blumen nach einem Unwetter.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 especially made for Blake's poem.
