I have found some references on Charles Parry for you but sadly no sound bites. I will send them via email for you. Enjoy! You are welcome Michelle!

I've never heard even heard of Charles Perry - I just liked the poems. I'll look into him, though! Thanks, Julie! I’ve never heard even heard of Charles Perry – I just liked the poems.

It is a really inspiring piece to sing. I first came across it when I sang in Queens' College Chapel Choir in Cambridge. I expect you know that it was the final anthem at the 10 year memorial serive for Diana, Princess of Wales, sung by the Choir of the Guards’ Chapel last year. It is the first of a set of six Songs of Farewell, written right at the end of the composer’s life. The style is very English and richly expressive. I will try ad find a link so you can listen to it :) Michelle – what a great choice and for the second week running your poem has been set to music by Charles Parry.
