This setting of a traditional Gaelic prayer is poignant and heartfelt, with sustained lines and a full, rich choral sound. Gentle shifts in harmony between various combinations of voices and the use of unexpected chromatic chords imitate the slow movement of the clouds, rain, and mist, and reveal something once hidden.
Ian Assersohn is a British composer, arranger, workshop leader, and choral director whose works have been widely performed both in the UK and abroad. His music, which has won a number of international awards, is prized by performers and audiences for its accessible style, appealing melodic and harmonic invention, and sensitive word-setting. Among his large-scale works are Dies Irae, a cantata of remembrance for three choirs, soloists, and orchestra; The Pied Piper of Hamelin, an entertainment for adult and children's choirs; Air and Angels for baritone solo, choir, brass quintet, timpani, and piano; and Ionian Mass, a secular work for mixed choir and piano. He has also written a wide variety of smaller-scale original works and arrangements for choirs of all types. His music appears in a number of anthologies including The Oxford Book Of Easy Flexible Anthems and The Oxford Book of Flexible Choral Songs.
