Choral Choir (Mixed) - Digital Download SKU: A0.835784 Composed by Paul Burnell. Contemporary. Octavo. 2 pages. Paul Burnell #3396247. Published by Paul Burnell (A0.835784). For voices and instruments.  The words adapted from the poem by Robert Herrick (1591 - 1674)Duration 3:00 The piece can be performed in several ways - possible options are: The 1st verse/refrain is solo voices (perhaps one voice, or one section). Men would sing an octave lower.The 2nd, 3rd and 4th verses/refrains are accompanied by an increasingly layered drone. The drone could be a mix of organ and/or instruments and voices. The voices sing the drone to ‘ay’ and will need to stagger their breaths. By the 4th verse the drone is in three lines - and perhaps is in organ or instruments alone because voices are all singing the melody line. The ascending chromatic line could be doubled an octave lower. Each line of the drone begins at the end of the previous refrain.At each verse more singers join the melody line. The melody may be played by organ/instruments as well. The 4th refrain is the loudest.The 5th verse is sung without the drone. It might be effective for this to be performed with a gradual diminuendo, or for singers to drop out one by one.
