The Chambered Nautilus (1858) SSAATTBB 7:45

Here is an eight part setting, challenging but hardly insurmountable, of the famously magnificent

poem by Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894). This is not the first setting, and the final stanza, 

beginning “Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul,” has also been set separately.

All my works are written in Sibelius, creating fully professional scores. Samples are available in PDF and mp3 audio.

 

Please have a look at all my choral works on my ChoralNet page, and thank you for your interest.
