Our Voice sets the poem 'Murmuration' by contemporary poet Eleanor Stewart-Pointing, which explores the relationship between the human voice and the sounds and music of the natural world. The piano writing gives the piece an energetic, jazzy feel, while the voice parts are sustained and intuitive.
Bob Chilcott has been involved with choral music all his life, first as a Chorister and then a Choral Scholar at King's College, Cambridge. Later, he sang and composed music for 12 years with the King's Singers. His experiences with that group, his passionate commitment to young and amateur choirs, and his profound belief that music can unite people, have inspired him both to compose full-time and, through proactive workshopping, to promote choral music worldwide.
