Product Description

A cappella setting of Edward Thomas' 'The Cherry Trees'. Premiered in Manchester's Cosmo Rodewalt Concert Hall on May 3rd, 2016.

The Cherry Trees, setting the words of Edward Thomas, is written to emulate the rural nature of his poetry. The three female voices, overlapping and assisting each other like waves of water, symbolise the faceless persona of nature: perhaps the wind rustling through the tree; perhaps the trees themselves. Much like the text, the music begins sweetly, but with one word the atmosphere is sent in a completely different direction. The second half of the piece sees the voices fittin the shape of wedding bells, almost mockingly, with the alto line bringing imposing strength underneath.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
