A Prayer – Lord? Please Don’t Let Me Die in a Funny Way
An Operatic Monodrama for Soprano and Piano
Text by Paul Simms
Duration: 13 min
Program Note:
What you are about to hear is inspired by one of my favorite writers, Paul Simms. He is brilliantly funny and makes me smile every time I come across his work. This is my best effort to adapt what he does into musical terms. I hope you like it. And if it doesn’t make you laugh, the fault is mine and not his. Paul, if you’re out there, thank you very much!
