about

THE BIRTHDAY POEMS is a song cycle based on the relationship between the celebrated Scottish poet and author GEORGE MACKAY BROWN and his muse STELLA CARTWRIGHT. It also addresses the platonic relationship between Stella and the Edinburgh born poet STANLEY ROGER GREEN. It spans three decades, from the mid 1950s until Stella's tragic and untimely death in 1985.
