Voicing: SA (with divisions & piano, opt. bass, opt. drum
Composer: Bob Chilcott
This is a gentle, blues setting of 'A Cradle Song' from William Blake's Songs of Innocence and Experience. Rich harmonies, blues chords, and syncopation combine with the classic Chilcott sound to create a charming addition to the upper-voice repertory. The optional bass part is printed in the vocal score and also available from OUP's website as a free PDF. The pianist may improvise around the printed piano part.
