This set was written for an outstanding new boychoir in Oakland, California, the Pacific Boychoir, founded and directed by Kevin Fox. The words were written by Peggy Pond Church, author of "The House at Otowi Bridge." She grew up on the lovely mesas around what is now Los Alamos, New Mexico before her father's boys' school was chosen by the government as the site for atomic weapon research during World War II.
Review: "Each song is about a minute long, but there's a lot more than one minute's musical value in each one. There is a beautiful flow to the music & an enchanted beauty to it." --Andrew Marr, "Voices of Angels"
