Description:
The iconic Irish folk song comes to life in this sensitive and sophisticated treatment. Throughout the work, textures shift from intimate unisons to expansive choral sonorities that infuse a sense of longing into the timeless text. Moving through expressive rubatos and delicate dynamic swells, this artful arrangement builds to a few breathtaking musical moments before fading to a hushed final chord. The SATB voicing opens with a brief tenor/bass feature and the SSAB is ideal for groups with more treble voices than changed.
