Performed by Salutaris Chamber Choir (http://salutaris.by) directed by Olga Yanum. Solo: Yuliya Shedzko. The Original poem is written by Sara Teasdale and translated into Belarussian by Yuliya Shedzko. Sound: Viktor Kisten || Floating on the waves of Baltic Sea and miraculous music by one of our favorite composers, Ēriks Ešenvalds, we invite you to go back to childhood for a few minutes – only in sleep though.
We got an idea for this video while we were on tour in Latvia (composer's homeland), in a coastal city Liepāja. Only on the waves of our dreams can we return to the time of our childhood, only in sleep we can for a short time become little boys and girls again – they still live somewhere within us. Let's not forget about them!
Children of Salutaris' singers took part in this video – they are our future, as well as the future of our choir.

LYRICS:
Rejoice, rejoice, your light has come, rejoice!
Come every soul descending in dismay
Who dreams to overcome this darkening day,
Dispel the myths of mystery, and from these heavy chains you shall be free, Rejoice!
Rejoice, the Light is here to help you find
Some brightening of your shadow weary mind;
To clear the tears of loss and pain,
Restore you hope for life again,
Rejoice, rejoice, your healing has begun,
So dance for joy, the victory is won!
O Lift your head and do not be afraid,
Receive the gift as ransom freely paid.
Release the ones you hold in misery
And love will conquer every enemy.
Rejoice, rejoice, the Hope of Nations, call.
The Word is Love, salvation for ... less

Chris has written many of Show of Hands’ big hits including, ‘Lily and the Rose’ which he wrote for Miranda Sykes and The Lost Sound. We’ve performed this together with Show of Hands, at their 25thAnniversary concert in The Royal Albert Hall in 2017.
Chris explains the background of ‘Though We Lie Underground’ for us:
I first came across the stories surrounding the curious tradition of West Country miners singing carols underground when listening to a recording of Alan Lomax’s extraordinary live BBC 1957 broadcast “Sing Christmas and the Turn of the Year”, a feat of radio genius involving hundreds of performers and groups all over the country, seamlessly brought together for one scintillating hour.
At one point, Lomax described how the miners of Devon and Cornwall would celebrate Christmas underground in an almost pagan fashion: they would select the largest lump of tin ore they could handle, set it up in... less
