One Art sets the colorful and witty poetry of American poet Elizabeth Bishop for mezzo-soprano voice with cello. The cello gives this song cycle a unique flavor that brings Bishop’s words alive with a huge variety of pizzicato and bowed effects that provide vivid commentary on the lyrical lines sung by the mezzo-soprano.
