for unaccompanied soprano and mezzo-sopranoThis unaccompanied duet for soprano and mezzo conflates R. S. Thomas' beautiful poem on the sacred quality of moorland with passages from three different Psalms and a line from the hymn 'Rheidol'. This is both a fine concert piece and an imaginative, compelling anthem-substitute whose technical demands are well within reach of most female soloists.
