The composer writes: The texts for these three songs are excerpted from William Blake’s poem of 1793, America: a Prophesy. This epic work is a commentary on the American Revolution – although not in any literal or conventional sense. Here, Blake creates a visionary world in which allegorical forces representing liberty and tyranny battle for supremacy in the New World.
