Format : Vocal Score
Like A Singing Bird by Bob Chilcott beautifully combines a melodic setting of Christina Rossetti's 'A Birthday' with Robert Burns' 'A Red Red Rose' sung to the tune of a traditional Scottish ballad. Both themes are imbued with a sense of happiness and contentment with the world and the interplay between the melodies results in a truly stirring finish.

The Oxford Book of Flexible Choral Songs is the perfect resource for secular choirs and singing groups who like the flexibility to perform songs in a range of combinations from unison to SATB. Each piece may be performed by a mixed choir, but is also presented with flexible scoring options, clearly explained throughout, enabling performance by various combinations of singers, including upper voices or men's voices alone. As well as new arrangements of existing repertoire, the collection also features newly commissioned original works, specially written for flexible forces.
