Written in May of 1915 by Canadian physician, Lt. Col. John McCrae, "In Flanders Fields" is one of the most recognizable poems about the First World War. It was first published in a London magazine about 7 months after being written. The poem is still well-loved in McCrae's native Canada and was even featured on a ten dollar note in 2001.

This piece is one of Dickinson's most recognizable works and it is one of the few which has been titled by an editor as Emily Dickinson did not title her poems. "Chartless" was first published in 1890 after her death in 1886 by a few of her personal acquaintances. The version of the poem we used here is the edited text which is slightly different from Dickinson's original.

Rudyard Kipling wrote the poem “If—“ in 1895, but it was not published until 15 years later. The piece is consistently listed among the best poems ever written by British poets and sections of it have been quoted or referenced in popular culture numerous times over the decades.

Imagine classic works of poetry from the likes of Dickinson, Kipling and Tennyson fused with original music scores and enhanced with sound effects.

We're joined by composer Jared DePasquale in this episode. Jared has worked in the field of commercial music for over 25 years in various capacities and has contributed music to hundreds of different projects including several audio drama projects for Focus on the Family. Most notable are the scores for Radio Theatre’s The Hiding Place, The Secret Garden and Les Miserables just to name a few. In this conversation with Jared, we talk about composing for audio drama, writing character themes, which instruments he plays, and much more. He also shares why he lost 20 pounds during the composing of the score for Les Mis, how emotionally draining working on The Hiding Place was, and why a question about making coffee forever changed the way he looked at his team. We also feature feedback from Michael, Victoria, Trenton, & Sarah Grace.
