 "Alexander Proudlock’s setting of a Cumbrian dialect poem brought a welcome, quirky sensibility to the proceedings." -  Judith Weir

In celebration of the Choir & Organ magazine, this piece was specially commissioned for there May edition. Taken from a Cumbrian 1850 poem by Lewis Proudlock, the result was premiered at St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, London in 2015 by the BBC Singers. The work was then recorded in 2018 by the Vesper Singers and now available on release.
