Recenzii

I love the melody to which the opening lines are set; it flows so simply yet so beautifully in triple time, giving real tranquillity and restfulness to the music. The flattened 7ths and gentle scotch snaps within the melodic lines and the open 5ths in the piano writing all help to give the piece its wonderful Scottish character and charm. The highpoint for me is the very simple refrain, lullaby-like in mood, with which each verse ends; the simplicity of this line set against he quaver movement of the upper piano part is extremely effective.
And do buy it - the melody is haunting, the harmonies (especially in the four-part version) are warm and expressive, and the vocal and piano writing is idiomatic and effective.
