for children's choir, SATB chamber choir, and SATB double choir. This monumental cantata for massed forces was commissioned by David Hill and The Bach Choir and premiered as part of the 2012 BBC Proms. Setting a specially commissioned text by Charles Bennett, Chilcott skilfully uses bothmetred and unmetered sung and spoken lines to highlight the text's envi ronmental message. While the musically interlinked choirs sing of humanity's negligence towards nature in a series of dream images, the endearing and innocent tunes of the children's choir ultimately evoke a sense ofhope for the future. Creating a unique opportunity for adult and childr en's choirs to collaborate, this captivating piece offers a fun and educational performance experience for singers both young and old.
