A jewel of English music, The Blue Bird first appeared as the third of these eight partsongs to words by the Victorian poet and novelist Mary Coleridge. Published shortly after her death in 1908, Op. 119 is the first of two such cycles composed in response to the refined sensibility of her poetry, which proved an ideal match for Stanford's mastery of word-setting and of the romantic choral idiom.

We’re proud to showcase the legendary creativity of Lloyd Larson as he breathes new life into the time-honored hymns of our faith in the worship celebration, A Festival of Hymns. There’s never been a more meaningful time to come together in song, and this is the perfect opportunity for choir and congregation to come together around our shared heritage of hymnody. A Festival of Hymns can be presented as either a seasonal or non-seasonal work, and a number of performance options are available, including an SAB choral version and an optional full orchestration. Many of the hymn arrangements are available individually, as is a collection for four-hand piano duet, A Keyboard Festival of Hymns, Vol. 1, that may be used to accompany these outstanding settings.

This piece was commissioned for Lessons and Carols at Trinity College, Hartford in 2001. Smith recalls, The commission came within a week of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and this was one of two pieces I began working on at that time, the other being Variations on an American Folksong for symphony orchestra....I found, after composing From East to West that I kept hearing it in my mind as an orchestral piece, and I wrote a version for symphony orchestra and choir so I could focus on other projects.
Three options are available in performing this piece: Choral and organ -- A small Full Score (organ and trumpets)--(0426sm) -- Trumpet parts (0426 Trpt) -- Large full score (0426FS) -- Instrumental parts (0426FP).
