UPC: 038081563077. English. Words by William Butler Yeats.

Lilting music resembles a folk song from the British Isles in this happy setting of Yeats' text, inspired by memories of childhood summers spent in the Irish countryside. The 12-line poem expresses a city-dweller's longing for the simple, tranquil life of Innisfree. Includes proven part-singing strategies---the tune first appears in unison, then becomes a canon; a peaceful bridge passes the melody through lower voice parts, while others sing sweet counterlines; and a modulation leads to full triadic harmony.

An intriguing contemporary sound for this romantic text from Scripture—you may find yourself swaying and whistling along. The soloist should be comfortable with the syncopation in the verses, while the addition of the background vocals (three voices in close harmony plus a descant) really adds to the aura of the piece, especially in the assembly’s refrain.
