Singing at Dusk

Parlando - Where Music and Words Meet

Emmy Hemmings is a forgotten Dada artist, launching the famous Cabaret Voltaire during WWI as am organizer, performer and poet -- yet no one translated her poetry from German until this century.

I just got done doing a somewhat free translation of one of her poems, and since Hennings was a performer, it seems fitting to present her work here in the Parlando Project tradition.

The Parlando Project takes various words (mostly literary poetry) and combines them in music in different styles. We've done over 700 of these audio pieces, and you can read more about and hear those pieces at our blog and archives, located at frankhudson.org
