I'll get the other two in!  Here's a start.  The Windhover.

I'll get the second one in pretty soon.  I am a bit drunk on beer right now, and can technically compose or enter notes when drunk, but functionally cannot enter notes when drunk!  Go figure...

Anyone interested:  I actually remembered to put in composition dates on these three partsongs!  They are of course partsongs, so the alto and tenor voices are not so interesting.

The Windhover, 4-29-21. Binsey Poplars 3-20-21, Spring 5-02-21.  You will have to wait for the second two:  TOO MUCH BEER! 😋

I really should get the other two in...😛

Well, in October I had a couple of unexpected houseguests, and the month was pretty wild!  I'll leave out the details so I don't get banned again...😁The others will not be too hard to enter, but I need some time off!  I am mainly researching and thinking about music rather than writing right now.

EDIT:  I am pleased with the number of views for this short piece so far, in a bad Noteflight rendition!  I really should get the other two in, and thank you!  Be sure to read the poem(s) carefully; they are music already, making Hopkins very difficult to set.

Here's number three, because I like it!  I'll get number two in eventually!
