Just as the Emersonian Hymns are masculine in nature, these songs are clearly intended for the female voice, based as they are on texts by women poets. Although more experimental and idiosyncratic than Baber's earlier songs, they are nonetheless lyrical and dramatic. The songs range in character from the haunting, chant-like quality of Emily Dickinson's "This Quiet Dust," to the stormy passion of Edna St. Vincent Millay's "Pity Me Not." Louise Bogan's "Men Loved Wholly Beyond Wisdom" provides a moment of sober reflection between these extremes.
