Heigh-Ho, The Holly! (15 Copies)
SSA | Range: A3 - F#5
Poet, William Shakespeare
Programme Notes
Heigh-ho, the Holly! was inspired by a call for scores looking at the theme of ‘winter’. Composed for the Carvetii Trio, (Clare Eccles, Sarah Wallcook and Ella Jarman-Pinto), in 2015, the piece was revised and completed in time for my mother, Jilly Jarman’s, 60th birthday celebrations. The BBC Singers performed the work in October 2016.
Performance Instructions
This piece has dramatic mood changes, with chilling, sarcastic verses and a light-hearted and mocking refrain.
Voices should be light and percussive, but allowed to soar on the long notes.
The piece should be rhythmic and flowing, with the refrain especially hearty! Treat it almost like a drinking/folk song.
Duration: 2 minutes
