Description

for SS with piano, or piano and string orchestra
A simple and beautiful setting describing the wonder of a world seen through the eyes of a deaf child. In the chorus singers are encouraged to sign the words they are singing, resulting in very moving but unsentimental music.
The orchestral material is available on hire.

Reviews

  • 'This beautiful and evocative song really appeals to young singers, and it is rather special in that simple sign language is used ... A very sensitive text about listening and understanding is enhanced by a melodic piano accompaniment, creating the effect of great poignancy. Enjoyable and moving to perform, this is a real gem of a piece - one for the repertoire!' -In-choir Spring 99
  • 'Chilcott's unusual and touching piece . . . A sensitive, evocative song . . .' -The Singer Dec 98
  • 'This song would make a moving and very effective concert performance piece for trained choirs of middle school age and above.' - Music Teacher May 1999

The specification in this catalogue, including without limitation price, format, extent, number of illustrations, and month of publication, was as accurate as possible at the time the catalogue was compiled.
