PART 1

LXXXIX by Pablo Neruda

When I die, I want your hands on my eyes:

I want the light and wheat of your beloved hands

to pass their freshness over me once more:

I want to feel the softness that changed my destiny.

Could anyone please tell me where I can find this recording for purchasing? I've searched iTunes and Amazon under 'Morten Lauridsen' and 'Polyphony' but haven't been able to find the album this is on. Thanks in advance for any help.

The CD is called NOCTURNES, by Morten .. (yes with an "E") Lauridsen, the choral group is Polyphony and the CD is made by Hyperion... Amazon has it

Lovely song.  The video was more than a bit distracting.

There is also a recording of Lauridsen's music produced by Lauridsen. Search for "Voce" and "Lauridsen" on itunes or cdbaby.
