for SATB and piano.
An upbeat setting of words by Charles Bennett celebrating the arrival of spring, Opening features changing metres, a compelling verse-refrain structure, and catchy melodies. A darker middle section mirrors the text's reflection on winter's snow and silence, before the music opens out into a final, joyful statement of the verse and refrain as the first signs of spring appear.

Bob Chilcott has been involved with choral music all his life, first as a Chorister and then a Choral Scholar at King's College, Cambridge. Later, he sang and composed music for 12 years with the King's Singers. His experiences with that group, his passionate commitment to young and amateur choirs, and his profound belief that music can unite people, have inspired him both to compose full-time and, through proactive workshopping, to promote choral music worldwide.
