The work explores facets of relationships between black men and black women --the \"flowers of darkness\"- as seen through the men's eyes. The speaker in the title song employs images of the sensuous blossoming of the night to express his breathless admiration for the budding womanhood of the object of his passion. Another observer ponders whether the Creole Girl possesses atavistic recall of her varied geographical roots, while Harlem Sweeties features an admiring Harlem boulevardier who vernacularly savors the luscious, myriad colors of black female pulchritude. Intimacy is implicit in At Early Morn: the narrator patiently bides his time while accommodating the requests of the reticent woman who summoned him to her side. The narrator in the following song lovingly extolls the beauty and virtue of his mate. It is with poignant tenderness that he recalls that The Glory of the Day Was in Her Face. Loss and longing pervade the final song of the cycle. The title alludes to a figure in Greek mythology, the architect Daedalus, who constructed the labyrinth of Crete. When he was later imprisoned in it, he escaped by making wings of feathers and wax. The despondent protagonist in O Daedalus Fly Away Home likewise longs to escape a land he helped to build by weaving wings of \"a wish and a weariness together\". Feverishly beckoning the vision of his departed beloved, he yearns to \"fly away home\" to Africa. Flowers of Darkness was written for William Brown. He premiered the work at Roosevelt University in Chicago in 1990 and later performed it at Merkin Hall in New York City.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"American Composers Alliance (ACA)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42370056126543,"sku":"ACA-MODR-007","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/d4763b5d64ad54bcf18e25bb9347c8f4.jpg?v=1749443762"},{"product_id":"moore-one-at-a-time-two-at-a-time-from-frederick-douglass-aca","title":"D.R.

The cello then enters announcing the principal theme, which is characterized by a three-tone motive. The theme represents the human spirit longing to be free. The chordal and rhythmic structure form a pattern which embodies a force which intensifies the despair. Deliverance is marked Allegro. The cello begins this movement alone. The theme is based on the same three-note motive of the Dirge, however the character is darker. The spirit is fighting to be free. The piano engages in a struggle with the cello. The cello suddenly plays alone again in an extended cadenza which alternates between rage and hope. Reflectively, the cello plays quiet harmonics and is joined by the piano. The resolve has become calm. They move with great purpose to the spiritual and physical liberation from their shackles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"American Composers Alliance (ACA)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44890760249423,"sku":"ACA-MODR-005","price":32.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/b0a1c0fe56465f211b19646c9da5c7bb.webp?v=1773835115"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/collections\/o6h1jwfik4m4xocbwg3j.png?v=1611239985","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/collections\/dorothy-rudd-moore.oembed","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
