I composed a draft of Full Moon & Light Hearted William (Two William Carlos Williams Songs) in 1997 for soprano and piano. They remained in manuscript form until the summer of 2006, when I was contacted by Judith Carman, music reviewer for The Journal of Singing. Judith asked me to honor master teacher Richard Miller with a short cycle, which I did by retrieving and revising these songs. Full Moon is a slow waltz in ABA form, with harmonies reminiscent of French songs. Light Hearted William is fast-paced, and the frequent grace notes and chromaticism in the accompaniment create a spirit of playfulness. The set was revised in 2017.

You can hear the premiere recording with Vale Rideout on Naxos' double CD set "Living in the Body — The Songs of Lori Laitman"
