The woman depicted in She Walks in Beauty elicits expressions of tender and gentle endearment from the poet. To accompany words like &ldquo,sweet,&rdquo, &ldquo,pure,&rdquo, &ldquo,soft,&rdquo, &ldquo,eloquent,&rdquo, the music flows gently, uninterrupted by rhythmic outbursts or jarring dissonances. The path of love is not always sunlit. In Shades of Love, the music expresses a variety of emotions brought on by diverse stages of love: ecstasy, tenderness, bitterness, wistfulness, eternal devotion. The colours and harmonies shift to match the mood of the poetry as each song portrays a different aspect of love.
