My heart is like a singing bird Whose nest is in a watered shoot My heart is like an apple tree Whose boughs are bent with thick set fruit My heart is like a rainbow shell That paddles in a Halcyon sea My heart is gladder than all these Because my love is come to me Raise me a dais of silk and down Hang it with var and purple dyes Carve it in doves and pomegranates And peacocks with one hundred eyes Work it in gold and silver grapes In leaves and silver fleur-de-lys Because the birthday of my life Is come, my love is come to me
Lovely, and in the main, a successful performance of this gorgeous Bob Chillcott song. However, I would have liked a little less piano (which was beautifully played though) and clearer diction, and it would have made this performance perfect. Great intonation throughout and a beautiful unison sound too.
could listen for hours.
I remember singing this when I was younger. So beautiful
Gorgeous with a fantastic unison across the choir! I hope Bob Chilcott hears this.
Remember singing this when we had choirs!
Love this and it was sung beautifully
My heart is like a singing bird
Whose nest is in a watered shoot
My heart is like an apple tree
Whose boughs are bent with thick set fruit
My heart is like a rainbow shell
That paddles in a Halcyon sea
My heart is gladder than all these
Because my love is come to me
Raise me a dais of silk and down
Hang it with var and purple dyes
Carve it in doves and pomegranates
And peacocks with one hundred eyes
Work it in gold and silver grapes
In leaves and silver fleur-de-lys
Because the birthday of my life
Is come, my love is come to me
It feels like home 🙏🏼
¡Que hermoso coro!
