THE CLOTHS OF HEAVEN for mixed voice choir
Goodmusic GM074
A new, very moving, beautiful setting for unaccompanied mixed voice choir of W. B. Yeats' poem "He wishes for the Cloths of Heaven". Although much of the piece is in four parts, all of the voice parts divide at some stage, the sopranos and altos each into 3 parts at one point, where it is necessary for some delicious chordal effects. You can view the score here and your computer will attempt to play it - the result may be quite a long way from a real performance with the subtlety that voices can bring, but it might give you a rough idea of the notes!
