Things That Never Die

In this heartfelt setting of Charles Dickens' well-known poem, lyrical melodic lines contrast with lush harmonic refrains, all in easy, accessible ranges for developing voices. The piano accompaniment is very nice and supportive while giving its own voice to the ensemble. "The pure, the bright, the beautiful that stirred our hearts in youth, the impulses to wordless prayer, the streams of love and truth... these things can never die."
