Reviews for White Waves on the Water
White waves on the water is an upbeat, likeable setting and presents a good challenge for a choir of upper voices. This is harmonically easy on the ear, and the flute adds another dimension to the whole piece.
The Organ August 07
The tonic minor take on the opening theme a little way in is a fun self-critique by Chilcott, in a piece that features an unapologetically cheesy chord structure. Some well-judged canonic writing for the second choir whips up a pleasing diatonic froth as a backdrop to the reprise, a fine musical portrait of rippling waves.
