For SATB Voices and organ or piano
By Paul Drayton
Paul Drayton's setting of three stanzas from Laurence Binyon's poem For the Fallen is poignant, dignified, and atmospheric. A serene and expressive refrain for unison voices (which the congregation may join in if desired) is interposed between evocatively turbulent passages for SATB choir. The accompaniment should ideally be played on the organ, but may be performed on the piano if organ is not available.
