Instrumentation Flute Oboe Clarinet in Bb Bassoon Horn in F Trumpet in Bb Trombone Percussion (5 temple blocks, vibraphone) Harp Violin I Violin II Viola Violoncello Contrabass
Duration: 4'20" approx.
Many years ago I sang with my local youth choir at our director’s wedding in a small church in Mark, Somerset. At about 10 in the morning I was alone in the church. I made a cup of tea and went outside to drink it in the fresh air. In the middle of a small, silent English village, with a so layer of mist on the ground, I felt remarkably calm and peaceful. In so ly, whispers I try to capture this snapshot of my childhood.
