Harold Darke's cantata As the Leaves Fall , composed in 1917, is a lament 'for the fallen', to a text by a little-known soldier-poet Joseph Courtney. Darke's quietly pastoral voice, most familiar today from his organ pieces and exquisitely lyrical setting of Christina Rossetti's In the Bleak Midwinter, passes the test of extended form and expression in a manner worthy to bear comparison with prophetic utterances decrying the futility of war by Bliss, Britten and Vaughan Williams.
