  • Summary

  • In this first episode we explore the song cycle Elegies for Emma which explores Thomas Hardy's relationship with Emma Gifford through the lens of the poetry he wrote about her...


    Does the poetry written after her death help us understand their relationship?

    Why did Hardy write just one poem about Emma before her death and almost two hundred after?

    And how does all this turn into music?
