A baby lying is No. 4 of the ‘Five Carols for 3 and 4 Parts’, which were written so as to be performable in more than one choral combination, for example, for women’s voices only with an optional part for men. Along with No. 3, Deep in the forest, those two carols are the darker pair of the set. However the numbering is no indication of performance order, where the five carols are being sung together as a group. In this case the following order is suggested: Nos. 2, 3, 5, 4, 1.

This short blessing was written for my choir St Mary’s Schola at St Mary’s College. It was composed for use in a performance at mass in St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Auckland.

The text is based on traditional Irish blessing, with a version of the concluding blessing often used in many services added at the end.

This arrangement is based on a previous arrangement of the piece, which I had made for various combination. It was made for my ex-colleague Mary Siew and her band at Shanghai American School, prior to a planned visit there in early 2007.

New Zealand is too young a country to have a true ‘folk’ tradition and much traditional folk music is really variats of earlier British songs, often with local names and places substituted for the originals. In this piece it deals with the seas and the lives of sailors.

My source for some of the folk song arrangements I’ve made is Neil Colquhoun’s collection Songs of a Young Country: New Zealand Folksongs published over thirty years ago.
