Additional Information
Between Heaven and Earth sets a single line of text from the Book of Revelations (19:17), I saw an angel standing in the sun, which is juxtaposed to a line of self-doubt, And I looked up to the skies and wondered. This text is set to musical material based on a short fragment taken from a 10/11th century trope setting of the Gloria in excelsis Deo, which is intoned by the first tenor at the start of the work. This first version is for eight voices SSAATTBB, percussion and harp
