for SATB and piano Quartel's arrangement of this well-known Irish carol is distinctly refreshing, characterized in part by its charming and sparkling piano part. The middle section offers an opportunity for both the choir and pianist to shine individually, and explores further the beautiful modal harmonies of the original melody.

About the Author
Sarah Quartel is a Canadian composer and educator known for her fresh and exciting approach to choral music. She celebrates the musical potential of all learners by providing singers access to engaging repertoire and transformative musical experiences. Deeply inspired by the life-changing relationships that can occur while making choral music, Sarah writes in a way that connects singer to singer, ensemble to conductor, and performer to audience. Although she has been a full-time composer since 2017, Sarah chooses to remain connected to her past as a music educator and is a guest teacher in her hometown of London, Canada. Sarah continues to work as a clinician and conductor at music education and choral events at home and abroad.

Reviews
Quartel has wisely decided to do just enough to give this piece shape and character, and to leave the words and melody to speak for themselves. The choral writing is simple but subtle...and the piano accompaniment hints at Hibernian origins. * Jeremy Jackman, Choir and Organ, August 2021 *
