Charm me Asleep is a gentle, lilting piece with a beautiful melody and homophonic texture. This is one of a pair of works, along with Slow, Slow, Fresh Fount, written by Watkins for the Cardiff Polyphonic Choir on the occasion of its 50th anniversary; performed together or separately, they are excellent additions to the repertoire.
