Description
for SSATBB unaccompanied This song skillfully blends a classic poem, Christina Rossetti's Uphill, with a relaxed, lightly jazzy style. Expanding from three- to six-part harmony, the chordal texture allows for strong annunciation of this well-known text. Chydenius's opening direction 'Swung, yet profound' encapsulates the essence of this work.
