Sarah Quartel : I remember

I Remember sets a text reflecting on the wonder of the natural world and the people who shape our lives. The stirring melody calls to mind the folksong tradition and is underpinned by a gently flowing piano accompaniment. The middle section brings a contrast of tonality with the altos accompanying the sopranos' melodic line before the beguiling melody of the opening returns to bring the setting to a poignant close.The Songbird series presents new and exciting original material for upper voices. Showcasing the work of today's most innovative names in choral writing the series includes songs in a variety of scorings from SA voices with piano to SSAA and percussion. With well-crafted and characterful pieces in a range of distinctive styles Songbird represents upper-voice choral music at its best.
