Hawks and hounds for children’s choir was written by the British composer, performer and music teacher Pat Hanchet. The piece begins with a march-like pattern over which the composer then places a simple two-part (and later three-part) melody over the established, repetitive marching voices. The piano merely plays a series of short interjections rather like fanfares. The constantly repeating motive provides an easy entry for children into the world of multi-part singing.

The central message of the text is closely linked to the motto of the competition for which the piece was composed: Let’s restore and preserve the beauty of nature! Due to this wide-ranging theme, the work is suitable for performance in both a secular and sacred concert setting.
