for SATB (with divisions) and piano Higgins's arrangements of three North-American traditional songs are sophisticated and beautiful, supported by well-crafted piano accompaniments. The first, 'Bright morning stars', is illuminated by a shimmering piano part with opportunities for a soloist or small group. Energy and bounce is abundant throughout the second, 'Little wheel a-turnin'', where the melody is passed around the voices and coloured with interesting harmonies. The last piece, 'He's gone away', is a parting song between two lovers with flowing melodies and accompaniment, and ends on a note of anticipation.
