Publisher's Synopsis

The City In The Sea is a musical composition created by Arthur Shepherd in 1913. The piece is a poem for orchestra, chorus of mixed voices, and baritone solo. It is inspired by the poem of the same name written by Edgar Allan Poe in 1831. The composition is a haunting and atmospheric depiction of the mysterious and mythical city that lies hidden beneath the sea. The music is characterized by its sweeping melodies, dramatic shifts in dynamics, and intricate harmonies. The chorus and soloist add a vocal dimension to the piece, adding to its emotional impact. The City In The Sea is a fascinating and evocative work that captures the essence of Poe's haunting poem and showcases Shepherd's skill as a composer.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
