The part-writing is largely melodic and intuitive, and should be picked up relatively easily by less strong readers. Another factor to recommend these settings is their thoroughly inclusive and topical subject matter, which should result in a broad appeal to many ensembles.
Tom Wiggall, Music Teacher July 07
for SATB and optional percussion
An uplifting and joyful concert setting of four texts exploring man's relationship with the earth. Brimming with energy, the work has a wonderful freshness and vitality. Chilcott selects a range of evocative texts from ancient Chinese, Aztec, Inuit, and Native American cultures. Chilcott's skill for capturing the essence and meaning of words in music shines throughout the work.
The percussion parts are included in the vocal score.
