The Unquiet Grave (Child Ballad 78)

As I approach the 24th anniversary of my late wife's death, I decided to perform this Child Ballad about the closeness and separation of lovers. 

The Parlando Project generally combines other people's literary poetry with original music, but this time the piece's music as well as the words are by that prolific and mysterious author and composer Anonymous. We've done over 800 combinations over the years of the Project, and you can hear any of them by visiting our blog and archives located at frankhudson.org
