How many singers are singing or studying this score? Our business relies on the purchase of one original score per voicing and a licensed copy for each singer—as well as the purchase of additional licenses in the future when more copies are made. (For example: For a 30-voice choir, you would buy a license to make 30 copies.) You may also discover from Dalglish recordings that we encourage creative and fresh performance ideas. Go for it!

Song No. 17 From Hymnody of Earth (1999)
Traditional Shaker Song
Arranged by Malcolm Dalglish
Spoken Text by Malcolm Dalglish

Lay Me Low begins with a spoken reference to the river of lanterns that commemorate Hiroshima Day. With this ritual of remembrance, Hymnody of Earth’s optimism returns, closing with the possibility of redemption and
restored harmony. Lay Me Low has often been performed as additional singers with lanterns or votive candles process around or from the audience to join the singers on stage.
