Additional Information

This short orchestral piece was commissioned by the "Friends of the Knowsley Youth Orchestras and Choirs" and was performed by the Knowsley Youth Orchestra in the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Hall as part of their annual Christmas concert with myself conducting. It was written to celebrate the birth of my daughter and all the material for the work is derived from the melody of "Now Thank We All Our God" the "Old 100th". Sadly, the recording of the work was lost before I ever heard it. This quite convincing realisation is Sibelius 7.5.1 using Noteperformer as the sound engine.
