Description
After an early Summers evening walk up on the fell, I was inspired to write a poem after not just hearing, but seeing a cuckoo flying overhead! The words soon became a song and this is the result.
Lots of strong catchy melodies for all voices involved, warm satisfying harmonies with some extra dramatic moments, plenty of playful interactions between parts plus a joyous anthemic finish.
A great concert number for any upper voice choirs!
Full score as A4 PDF available for download. (12 pages)
Here’s a studio draft recording of the full track.
