music composed and performed by David W Solomons [aka The dwsChorale].
This particular setting was composed with a small mixed-ability choir
in mind, so The Voices are mainly in two parts (men's and women's Voices),
splitting to four parts (SATB) occasionally, where The words suggest it.
The musical style is reminiscent of The 19th century although The piano
part does go into 20th century style syncopation at times.
