This is the latest �?? and 7th �?? in an a cappella series going back three decades in which the texts are taken from Shakespeare's plays. �??Come Unto These Yellow Sands�?� is a gentle invitation to the listener, at least until the animals take over. �??Thou Canst Not Hit It,�?� in this interpretation, is a song about trying to hit the high and low notes. Surrounded by comedy and tragedy, �??Honour, Riches, Marriage-Blessing�?� is the idyllic center of the set. �??O Sweet Oliver,�?� with its dueling boy and girl choirs, leads into �??Willow, Willow,�?� where the poem's word repetitions inspire the driving rhythm.
