Xanadu by Frank Valente

This album is a sonic exploration of the first three lines of the Samuel Taylor Coleridge Poem "Kubla Khan". The "Intro" represents the decent into the dream world, followed by the rise of the city of Xanadu. The camera zooms in on a stately and ominous Kubla Khan watching over his kingdom, and in the background monks are praying at the River Alph.

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran

Thank You Louis Luchani for showing our AP Lit class this poem.
