Strange - eyed constellations : after "Drummer Hodge" by Thomas Hardy, for baritone and piano / Lowell Dykstra

Publisher's number: 25779
Genre: Vocal music

Remarks: “Drummer Hodge” is a poem  by Thomas Hardy. However, I chose the wonderful but – in this context - painful expression from the last stanza for the title.
In this poem the soldier, who is sent on a mission in the Second Boer War, is killed in action and buried in a strange and faraway land, his grave “eternally reigned by strange-eyed constellations.”
