Description
for SSATB unaccompanied
This meditative, folk-style anthem is given a Scottish lilt through the use of Scotch snap rhythms and held drone-like vocal lines. McDowall chose to set this traditional Scottish Gaelic Blessing for the ‘warmth and simplicity’ of the words that seem to ‘resonate with the times in which we live’.
