Living Poets

Here at Raindrop New Music, we take words very seriously. Many of our pieces set the poetry of poets that are alive and writing right now! If you are looking for newly written texts by poets and librettists that are actively creating, look no further. Below is a collection of all of our works that feature text by living poets.
