The accompaniment should ideally be played on the organ, but may be performed on the piano if organ is not available. Also available in a version for mixed voices.

It sensitively sets George Meredith's poem (on which the original orchestration is based) and combines this with wordless vocal lines and vocal solos, preserving the texture and timeless effect of the original. Commissioned and premiered by the Swedish Chamber Choir, the work has also been recorded by the choir under the direction of Simon Phipps.
