for unison upper voices, SATB, and piano The music is shared at first between the upper-voice and mixed choirs before they come together, the one a delicious countermelody to the other. The music is quite simply beautiful, in keeping with the words, and possesses that elusive quality of seeming to have always existed. The upper-voice part is available separately.
Bob Chilcott (b.1955)
"Both of these original carols have haunting melodies, richly harmonized above gently rocking piano parts." - Rosemary Broadbent, Church Music Quarterly Sept 03
