I Saw Three Ships—arr. Mark Hayes. This
spirited setting for choir and four-hand piano
of the traditional English carol opens with a
rousing choral fanfare. Verses follow with
the melody sung first by women and then the
men. Next, a homophonic verse is followed by
a marvelously creative section in which the
primary carol partners with Lo, How a Rose
E'er Blooming. Building in intensity towards
the close, we hear successively the "bells" and
the "angels" before "all rejoice amain." Some
choral divisi enriches the score, including rich
chords in the finale.
