Motor Bus for alto and guitar (mp3)

This is a whimsical mixed-language poem by A D Godley, playfully mocking those attempting to grasp Latin noun declensions (or perhaps it's meant to assist in learning...). The translation provided on the initial page is my personal interpretation, while the song employs Godley's original piece. To highlight the mechanical essence of the motor bus and the robotic-like repetition of Latin declensions, the composition is set in a whole tone scale. The execution of the piece is my own.
