SONGS AND SONNETS
for mixed voice choir unaccompanied
Roberton 3118
Four settings for SATB choir a cappella of Shakespeare words:
Hark, hark! The lark
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
O mistress mine!
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought.
The sequence can be reversed to give a "big finish" with "Hark, hark!". These settings were composed for Roy Wales and the English Concert Singers. They were first performed in London at St.John's, Smith Square in November 2000.
Duration 8 minutes
