This piece draws on poetry by the Nicaraguan poet Pablo Antonio Cuadra (1912-2002), who, as a young man, spent more than two decades sailing the waters of Lake Nicaragua, meeting peasants, fishermen, sailors, woodcutters, and timber merchants. From such encounters, he was inspired to construct a cycle of poems that recount the odyssey of a harp-playing mariner, Cifar, who likewise travels Lake Nicaragua. — Gabriela Lena Frank.

Eight Songs: El nacimiento de Cifar (The Birth of Cifar) - Me diste ,oh Dios! una hija - EI rebelde (The Rebel) - Tomasito, el cuque (Tomas, the cook) - El nino (The Child) - Eufemia - En La Vela del Angelito (At the Wake of the Little Angel) - Pescador (Fisherman)
