For SATB Chorus, Violoncello and Harp or Piano
Words by Tara Wohlberg
Music by Stephen Chatman

The rich, poignant combination of mixed chorus, violoncello, and harp strongly suggests a theme of love and romance. Stephen Chatman's evocative setting of Tara Wohlberg's intimate, mesmerizing text, whisper me, features a soft blend of instrumental timbres and a sustained, intricate counterpoint of voices. The initial polyphony contrasts the subsequent homophony, beginning with the words, "morning blossoms."

The second setting, hush, hush, expresses a compelling universal human emotion: "the sunset of our love deep love." The predominant texture, which is a delicate balance of subdued vocal melodies, consistently high violoncello lines and flowing harp arpeggios, is interrupted by the recurring quiet refrain, "hush, hush."
