WHITMAN TO MUSIC
Sir-I have listened with interest to "Walt Whitman Suggests Sea Music" and now am looking forward with keen pleasure to "Whitman and Delius." Besides Delius, Cyril Scott, Holst and Vaughan Williams are all composers of Whitman’s verse. The latest Whitman
Music List, issued in November, 1946, records 295 compositions by 137 composers, and additional gramophone records. The Saunders 1947 "Whitman in Fiction" gives 80 titles, and the New York Whitman collector, Mrs. Sprague, has additional ones. In the Trimble Whitman Collection in the Public Library, Dunedin, we have "The Laurel Song Book," with three Whitman poems.
