Notes “Song of the Fog” was inspired by Jaime de Angulo’s poems, “Fog” and “Redwood in the Night”. Fog Fog coming up in streams
from the sea
In the pasture the old black mare stands
with her head bent. Redwood in the Night Foggy rain, foggy rain, gentle rain,
dripping under the tall redwoods.
Shaggy horse with your tail to the storm,
aren’t you cold? This work was written with the generous support of the Elaine and Richard Fohr Foundation and InterMusic SF. [Na]
