Let Evening Come for Soprano, Viola and Piano 中提琴 钢琴

博尔科姆的委托原本是为大都会歌剧院的女高音贝妮塔-瓦伦特和女中音塔蒂亚娜-特罗亚诺斯创作一首二重奏。然而，在创作过程中，特罗亚诺斯意外去世。于是作曲家改变了设计，改用中提琴来表现这位已故女中音。作曲家选择了三首关于接受死亡的诗歌作为布景："艾利、鲍德温、弗洛伊德、基伦斯和梅菲尔德"（玛雅-安杰洛）、"'Tis not that Dying hurts us so"（艾米莉-狄金森）和 "Let Evening Come"（简-凯尼恩）。<让黄昏来临》由女高音歌唱家贝妮塔-瓦伦蒂、钢琴家辛西娅-雷姆和中提琴家迈克尔-特里录制，并由半人马唱片公司发行

原文简介:
Bolcom's commission was originally to write a duet piece for Metropolitan Opera stars soprano Benita Valente and mezzo-soprano Tatiana Troyanos. However, while the composition was in development, Troyanos unexpectedly died. The design was then changed, representing the late mezzo-soprano with a viola instead. The composer selected three poems about the acceptance of death for the set: “Ailey, Baldwin, Floyd, Killens and Mayfield” (Maya Angelou), “'Tis not that Dying hurts us so” (Emily Dickinson), and “Let Evening Come” (Jane Kenyon). Let Evening Come was recorded by soprano Benita Valenti, pianist Cynthia Raim and violist Michael Tree, and released on Centaur Records.
