Shakespeare’s Sonnet 2 – When Forty Winters

Music by Kevin Carmody
Text by William Shakespeare

This choral setting of Shakespeare’s Sonnet 2 explores the theme of aging, legacy, and renewal. The work unfolds in two parts: a solo recitative that captures the intimate meditation of the poet, and a choral conclusion that transforms the sonnet’s couplet into a communal affirmation of rebirth and continuity.

The solo, performed by Alejo Alvarez Castillo, gives voice to Shakespeare’s reflection on beauty fading with time, framed in stark yet lyrical lines that mirror the sonnet’s contemplative tone.

The choir, The Macrófona Choir under the direction of Héctor Muñoz, brings Shakespeare’s final couplet to life:
“This were to be new made, when thou art old,
To see thy blood warm, when thou feel’st it cold.”
In this setting, voices weave together, offering a vision of warmth and renewal carried forward through future generations.

Solo: Alejo Alvarez Castillo

When Forty Winters for Solo Voice & Choir

MICHAEL SPYRES A FOOL FOR LOVE, Tenor Arias

“Michael Spyres has a lovely, liquid tenor, all honey for love duets and some metal for cries of outraged honor.” – John Yohalem, from Opera Today

You may well be hard-pressed to name a classic opera that lacks a love-story – or a tenor as the main romantic hero. Accordingly, emerging American tenor Michael Spyres has come up with a fresh and fascinating pretext for A Fool for Love: his new collection of tenor arias on Delos.

-----------------
This recording  was part of my very first studio production. I labeled it "affettuoso assai" and made copies on CompactCassettes, each one by hand !  During the following years I managed to sell 500 pieces during my first gigs and concerts and was enormously proud of it.
