Written with thanks for Katie Lyons-Pingree, my favorite harpist.

As there hasn't been a performance (yet!), here's a computer demo: 

a hole in a flute (2009) 

 mixed choir, harp and hand percussion


based on the poetry of Hafiz 

 in translations of Daniel Ladinsky

Hafiz was a Persian mystical poet who lived in the 14th century. His ecstatic poetry describes his relation to the Divine in very personal, sometimes erotic, always joyful terms.
