Jenny Kissed Me by Barbara Rosen — Lyrics
Jenny kiss’d me when we met,
Jumping from the chair she sat in;
Time, you thief, who love to get
Sweets into your list, put that in!

About Jenny Kissed Me
Imagine a moment of tender affection, captured in this art song by Barbara Rosen. Set to the words of a well-loved poem, Jenny Kissed Me evokes a sweet memory despite the passage of time and the weariness of life. The composer’s setting for treble voices (AAAT or AATA) perfectly conveys the delicate sentiment of the text. This piece offers a charming opportunity for young or female choirs to explore expressive vocal colours and nuanced phrasing, bringing a touch of intimacy and joy to any concert programme.
