Abstract: She Speaks is a setting for mezzo-soprano and chamber orchestra of Hilda Raz's wonderful poem of the same name. In setting the poem I have tried to find musical analogues for the contrasting views of the Garden and the world voiced in the poem. Where Adam is blunt and iron-clad, the narrator (and perhaps the poet) see things in a more variegated light. The allusion at the end of the last stanza, which Adam would surely cast as another monosyllable, is taken up instead by the orchestra in a brief coda.
