Judith Weir was inspired by this author to compose a concerto for 10 instruments entitled Musicians Wrestle Everywhere, and Leon Kirchner's The Twilight Stood is based on this author's "There Came a Wind Like a Bugle". The first of Simon Holt's Two Movements for String Quartet, based on poems of this author, begins with a rapid viola solo that imitates the ($) flight of an insect and is titled "Blue -- uncertain stumbling Buzz". Aaron Copland set works such as "Heart, we will forget him!" and "I felt a funeral, in my brain" in his 12 Poems of this author, and the third movement of John Adams's Harmonium is based on this poet's (*) "Wild Nights." For ten points, name this reclusive "Belle of Amherst", whose "I heard a fly buzz when I died" and "Because I could not stop for death" have often been set to music.
