This song can be understood on two levels.
At first sight it is a simple sentimental piece,
but beneath it lies a History of pure imagination,
enchantment and impossibility.
The composer already realises he is
no longer feeling what he is writing,
he is just weaving a spell,
over an ostinato guitar motif,
to try to bring The feelings back
(hence The title "Incantation").
He has found in his life that
whenever he writes a song
for The object of his desire,
he has already
begun to stop feeling that desire ...
it is a sign that The relationship
is about to change
or disappear.
But The whole thing is indeed
enchantment and magic:
you can dream and
you can take The song at face value
if you wish.

Humming And Ah-ing Machine is an innovative and fun composition by John White for unaccompanied SATB chorus. The work is made up of short repeated phrases that evolve and entwine, creating a hypnotic and exciting overall work.
We performed this piece at a concert in St Michael's Cornhill, London, in 1983.
