Description:
SATB & piano
Don Michael Dicie has created a straightforward, unflashy but beautiful arrangement of Lowry's famous 'How can I keep from singing?'. Dicie departs from his typical harmonic style of major and minor seventh chords for a more tertial setting. The variety of textures and its simplicity and accessibility make a lovely effect. The women sing the first verse; men, the second; both, a cappella for the third; and they finish together with piano.
