TAKE UP THE SONG | Music

Dedication of the Portrait Monument,
at which Millay presented a poem.
I am looking again at the Take Up the Song Play that was produced in 1998
in Rochester, N.Y.


It might be feasible in a new production to use music for the sonnet "Take Up the Song" by Edna St Vincent Millay, upon rededication of the Portrait Monument of Stanton, Anthony and Mott.

But so far I have only found a somber composition by James Q. Mulholland. Take Up The Song | 10-96395 - Colla Voce Music. I think it needs something celebratory. Marching, something like "John Brown's Body".
