A Choral Suite for Two Part (Soprano and Alto) Children's Chorus setting the text of George Mackay Brown. This enchanting 12-minute cycle is typical of the subtle and delicate way Maxwell-Davies approaches writing forchildren: straightforward tender affectionate yet with just a hint of the complexity found in challenging 'adult' works like the cycle Westerlings. George Mackay Brown's poetry with its haiku-like short stanzas and pointillisteallusive imagery leaves you constantly intrigued : who is the boy 'lost on the hill till sundown' and why is time 'a bird with white wings?' Is this perhaps the poet himself playing a bit of holiday truant?

Introduce your choir to the fun of a cappella singing with this accessible arrangement of the Lee Ann Womack hit that topped the charts in 2001. Crafted for success this setting gives all the parts a chance to sing the melody while the background vocals are easy and create a perfect stylistic texture. Available separately: SATB a cappella SSAA a cappella. Duration: ca. 2:45.
