Description

In this setting of an unusual fifteenth-century text there is an overriding atmosphere of joy and intense love, as well as touching moments of pathos, especially in relation to the premonition of Calvary. Choirs should aim to have a clear understanding of the nuances of the text, particularly in terms of the dialogue between Mary and Joseph. Underlying the entire performance should be a subtle sense of urgency as the poet's dream unfolds. An optimistic tempo should remain rock-solid throughout and a sense of forward momentum must be maintained. The quaver patterns in the organ call for a bright registration, but not at a volume which dominates.
