In 1996 came the CD "Tyger and Other Tales" (Sentience Records 70002) with Leslie Chew and David Kronemyer which revived the Keats work along with ten other romantic English poems set to music. Her own favourite of these was "Complaint of the Absence of Her Lover Being Upon the Sea", as stated privately to a fan. She died on February 21, 2007, in Portland, Oregon, where she had lived and worked as a singing teacher since 2000. A memorial service for Kocjan was held in Los Angeles on March 10, 2007.
