But Stars Remaining was written in 1970 for the English soprano Jane Manning. It sets lines from two poems by Cecil Day-Lewis bringing them together to create a scena lasting some seven minutes. It is an aubade or dawn love-song; it begins with outward extravert energy and moves to an inward intimate centre. It closes as the imagery moves out again to the expanse of the sky at first light.
