Stephen Hatfield: Take a Step: 2-Part Choir

Irish Folk Song-Colcannon made from various combinations of cabbage kale onions scallions and potatoes mashed with butter and milk is one of Ireland's most famous traditional dishes. Although this piece at first seems like a tribute to food it's really a tribute to memory and to times gone. The verses take us from the home to the school to courting on a country lane with the narrator a little older in every verse and a little more aware of the magic of the moment. For women's choir (SSA).

Cuban Folk Song-Son de Camaguey is a Cuban folk song from which the composer takes the refrain and then frames it with kaleidoscopic patters of ostinati inspired by the song and by Afro-Cuban music in general.
