About the piece
Settings of two poems from Byron's Hebrew Melodies, from Busoni's early output, when he was still working within a broadly Romantic idiom before his style turned toward the austere and forward-looking manner of his maturity.
Byron's collection had been set by many composers across the century, and its verses on exile and loss had wide appeal in an age preoccupied with both.
