How Doth the Little Crocodile composed by Stephen Barchan

 


Below is some information about the piece:


This setting of Lewis Carroll's How Doth the Little Crocodile from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was composed for the Aldeburgh English Song Project in 2013 and first performed by the soprano Alexandra Hutton. One of the aims in composing this short piece, lasting approximately two minutes, was to explore both Alice's distressed character and the surrealism of Wonderland through the use of varied vocal techniques and irregular rhythms. The score was revised in 2022 and can now be heard in a recent recording made in London by the British-Pakistani soprano Mimi Doulton.
