Chilcott, Bob: Opening (SATB, Piano)

An upbeat setting of words by Charles Bennett celebrating the arrival of spring, Opening features changing metres, a compelling verse-refrain structure, and catchy melodies. A darker middle section mirrors the text's reflection on winter's snow and silence, before the music opens out into a final, joyful statement of the verse and refrain as the first signs of spring appear.
