(Echo) Chamber Music

the polite murmur
of woodwind and harpsichord
echoes across time

Kim M. Russell, 2016

My response to Carpe Diem #1089 Divertimento in D minor, Op. 3, no. 3 by Anna Bon di Venezia

In today’s episode, Chèvrefeuille has introduced me to a female composer who is completely unknown to me and I was also unaware of the number of female composers who were creating music before the twentieth century. I was delighted to learn about Anna Bon de Venezia, the composer of Divertimento in D minor, Op. 3, no. 3.

heavenly music
resonates through the neighborhood
early sunrise
birds praising their creator
I embrace my love
