ISBN 0571536492. Sacred.
This wonderful sacred work for
mixed voices is based on John
Ireland's well-loved hymn-tune
Love Unknown. L'Estrange
expertly takes fragments of
Ireland's melody, developing,
interweaving and re-
harmonising them to create a
powerful, ethereal sound-world
that perfectly reflects the
poem's themes of love, sorrow,
passion, death and ecstasy.
The Faber Choral Signature
Series introduces a wealth of
new or recently written choral
music to choirs in search of
fresh repertoire. The series
draws in a rich diversity of
contemporary composers and
includes both lighter and more
challenging contemporary
works, offering a thrilling
array of varied styles.
