Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes and the Amateur Emigrant - Robert Louis Stevenson

In 1878, Robert Louis Stevenson was suffering from poor health, struggling to survive on the income derived from his writings, and tormented by his infatuation with Fanny Osbourne, a married American woman. His response was to embark on a journey through the Cevennes with a donkey, Modestine, and a notebook, which he later transformed into Travels with a Donkey. Just a few months after publication, Stevenson was off again - this time crossing the Atlantic and the breadth of America in the hope of being re-united with Fanny, an experience he recorded in The Amateur Emigrant. Both pieces are classics of travel writings, which reveal as much about Stevenson''s character as the landscape he travels through.

'Twas in the year

George Benjamin’s motet ‘Twas in the year was first performed by the Choir of King’s College Cambridge in 1980. A 7-minute setting of a prophetic vision from the Book of Isaiah for SATB choir and organ, it opens with the austere clarity of an unaccompanied tenor solo. As more voices join its textures grow in complexity before a climactic unison, after which the solo tenor of the opening returns. A perfect carol for Advent and Christmas, for intermediate level choirs.Â
