As a boy chorister I can remember singing Healey Willan's setting of "Rise up, my love", a true gem. The beautiful imagery of this text drew me to write my own setting. Sincere thanks to MatThew Curtis (choraltracks.com) for recording "Rise up, my love, my fair one." If you would like to obtain The sheet music for this song, please contact: info@leadingnote.com. I would like to acknowledge The a cappella choir that I sing in, The Stairwell Carollers, and our director Pierre Massie, for Their musical inspiration These past 26 years.

I can still see it, its grey roof in The grey of The water pressens dans la tour de bois ma demeure la folie I have a presentiment in The tower of wood of my dwelling place, of madness la folie le silence of madness, of silence clos clos vigilance Closed in, closed in but keeping watch Oh Ne pas altérer ce qui reste, et le doit. Oh never change what remains and should remain "Was bleibt aber stiften die Dichter." What remains, however, is The stuff of poetry.  less
