for SSAA unaccompanied
In these three Shakespeare songs McDowall sets lesser-known texts, focusing on some aspect of music in each. Sensitively scored for voices, the songs are full of ravishing sounds, textures, colour, rhythmic vitality, and wit, and will be a most rewarding and exuberant addition to the choral repertoire. When time is broke is also scored for mixed voices, SSATB.

Über Autor(innen)

Educated at Edinburgh and London Universities, Cecilia McDowall has been described by the International Record Review as having a 'communicative gift that is very rare in modern music. An award-winning composer, McDowall is often inspired by extra-musical influences, and her choral writing combines rhythmic vitality with expressive lyricism. Her music has been commissioned, performed, and recorded by leading choirs, among them Phoenix Chorale and the Choir of New
College, Oxford, and is regularly programmed at prestigious festivals in Britain and abroad.
