About this title

About the Author:

Bob Chilcott has been involved with choral music all his life, first as a Chorister and then a Choral Scholar at King's College, Cambridge. Later, he sang and composed music for 12 years with the King's Singers. His experiences with that group, his passionate commitment to young and amateur choirs, and his profound belief that music can unite people, have inspired him both to compose full-time and, through proactive workshopping, to promote choral music worldwide.

Review:

Bob Chilcott always provides eminently singable material . . . It is very easy, though, and is deftly done. * Choir & Organ Sept 97 * . . . An attractive lullaby based on a fine text by Janet Lewis. * Church Music Quarterly Oct 97 * A gently-flowing piece that will have immediate appeal. * Choir Schools Today 1998 *
