Description
Water Parted is from Barry's opera The Intelligence Park , and tells the story of a composer who has lost the power to write, later rediscovering it through an obsession with a castrato. The work alternates a beautiful fragility with moments of violent, angular virtuosity: a fantastic recital piece for soprano and piano.
