"I first heard this piece at the CME Institute '97. I had not got a choir at the time. I formed Carlow Young Artists Choir when I returned from the institute and this piece was on my 'to do' list right from the start! We performed this piece in '99 (SA) and when the choir evolved into a mixed choir in '04 we learned the SATB version. Since '99 this piece as become one of our most performed pieces and played a significant part in our 10th Anniversary in 2007 when many past pupils returned to to the stage to sing it with us. It is a challenging piece, both rhythmically and musically but completely worth it when you hear the end product! Our choir has now changed its name to Aspiro (pronounced Aspeero)"
