Winter ‘20-‘21 Parlando Project Top Ten, numbers 10-8

March 27, 2021March 28, 2021 ~ Frank Hudson ~ Leave a comment

I’ve been tardy in many things for this project lately — but let me get on to recounting which pieces were most liked and listened to during the past quarter. It may be a bit strange to revisit a winter we are glad to be emerging from, but poetry is about remembrance of all kinds … Continue reading Winter ‘20-‘21 Parlando Project Top Ten, numbers 10-8

Trifles–I Know What Stillness Is

November 30, 2020December 5, 2020 ~ Frank Hudson ~ 2 Comments

I made it! This is the 500th audio piece presented here as the Parlando Project since it began in the summer of 2016. In the month of December I’ll write more about what the work for this project has been like, and what I think I’ve learned. I’ll also share with you, my valued audience, … Continue reading Trifles–I Know What Stillness Is

The Young Intellectual

November 30, 2018December 12, 2018 ~ Frank Hudson ~ 1 Comment

I spend an invisible part of the iceberg in this project looking around for material that I think might work combined with music. One thing invariably happens when you look broadly at something: you find connections that you didn’t expect you’d find. Here’s something I’ve noticed this fall: around 1875 or so, in a small, … Continue reading The Young Intellectual

Three Places In New England

July 31, 2018August 8, 2018 ~ Frank Hudson ~ 3 Comments

You may have noticed fewer new pieces posted here over the past month. There are a variety of un-interesting reasons for that, but one cause is worth a post, even if it’s not representative of what you usually find here. Think of it as a “make up post” for the missing activity this July. This … Continue reading Three Places In New England

There is another sunshine Part 2

February 23, 2018February 23, 2018 ~ Frank Hudson ~ Leave a comment

As I warned everyone yesterday, I seem to like Daze & Weekes Sunshine Blogger questions a little too much. Longest post ever… 1. What inspired you to start blogging? The Parlando Project started out as a podcast, which I wanted to be just the short audio pieces combining various words (mostly poetry) with as varied … Continue reading There is another sunshine Part 2

Rosemary

November 30, 2017March 7, 2022 ~ Frank Hudson ~ 1 Comment

It’s been awhile since a new post, what with holidays and family occasions, but here’s another piece, “Rosemary,”  using the words by Edna St. Vincent Millay. Millay was one of the most popular, most often read, poets of the first part of the 20th Century, but the later part of the century gave her less … Continue reading Rosemary

Millay’s Sonnet 43

September 20, 2017 ~ Frank Hudson ~ 1 Comment

Edna St. Vincent Millay was another poet who offered little to the “New Criticism” critics who largely set the canon for the 20th Century, even though her career, which covered the first half of the 20th Century, ran almost exactly through the same time as Eliot, Frost, Pound, William Carlos Williams, and Wallace Stevens, and … Continue reading Millay’s Sonnet 43

Seventeen Almost to Ohio

August 8, 2018August 8, 2018 ~ Frank Hudson ~ 3 Comments

Two threads lie here, waiting to be woven together. One thread: those young pre-WWI Modernists, the other: writers in old age. Young: Mina Loy, Alfred Kreymborg, Glaspell and Cook of the Provincetown Playhouse, early in their careers, workers shaping modern literature—though none of them are remembered much now. Older poets: Longfellow, Donald Hall, and even … Continue reading Seventeen Almost to Ohio
