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 for children: 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 pointilliste allusive 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?

The carol text is by the same sixteenth-century poet--Robert Southwell--as the better-known This Little Babe. Like its sister text, it explores an unusual metaphor for the infant Jesus--in this case, a refining fire which purifies the believer. The strophic setting, with soprano solo, is dissonant and chromatic, with edgy rhythms: a fine selection to balance against sweeter Christmas settings. SSAA a cappella. Medium-Difficult. SSAA, a cappella Published by: Treble Clef Music Minimum order quantity: 8 copies.

Hugo Cole (1917-1995) was a British composer, cellist, and music critic. He studied under Herbert Howells at the Royal College of Music and with Nadia Boulanger in Paris. He is best remembered for writing several operas and choral works, as well as much chamber music, but he also wrote a series of pedagogical Cello books and had a successful career as a music critic for The Guardian and Country Life.
Cole's Magnificat was set in the key of G major, and first published in 1957. It is scored for Female or Boys' Choir (SSAA) with Piano accompaniment.
