Originally written for the choir at Queen Mary's College, this piece takes the familiar words of Christina Rossetti and translates them into a semi dramatico setting, exploring the atmosphere and images projected from the text. The main intent was to explore the relationship between the music and the words. In ABA form, the piece moves from one minor key to another before returning to its original state.
