The four short pieces which comprise "I conversed with you in a dream" were inspired by fragments of poetry written by Sappho. Nearly all of Sappho's poetry is preserved in fragmentary forms (of the various phrases I used, only "a delicate fire" is excerpted from a full poem.) I find these fragments incredibly powerful and evocative; the various sound-worlds of each of these short pieces were conceived of as responses to Sappho's pungent imagery. [written by composer]
