Work Overview
This lively work celebrates the expanse of the sky and horizon. Its long legato vocal lines soar over the rhythmic piano accompaniment, reflection the beautiful imagery of the Dransfield text. It would suit a good secondary school choir or tertiary-level choir and would be ideal as a competition or show piece.
