TEXT

Ad mortem sic vita fluit, velut ad mare flumen.
Vivere nam res est dulcis, amara mori. 

— John Owen (1564–1622)


Translation: 

So life flows to death, as a river to the sea.
For to live is a sweet thing, to die is bitter

PROGRAM NOTE

The text of this piece, a latin epigram by the Welsh poet John Owen, touches on the inherent melancholy bound up in the human experience. My setting is an attempt to evoke certain facets of this melancholy, such as the unsettling feeling of time slipping away.
