It tells us that whatever troubles life might bring, singing will ‘turn the gloom to cheerful day’. This song similarly turns, from a sombre minor to a joyful major, finally evaporating into the distance. The Gift to Sing is a movement from Alan Bullard’s cantata Endless Song, for SATB choir and strings (quartet, quintet, or orchestra), or piano (Colne Edition CE76).The audio recording is taken from a live performance of Endless Song, with string quintet.The video recording on YouTube (scrolling score) is digitally produced, with piano. COLNE EDITION CE124    www.colneedition.co.ukAlan Bullard’s choral music is performed and broadcast world-wide, and is in the repertoire of many choirs.
