With a poetic text written by a young poet, this work perfectly captures the vulnerability of growing up, with beautiful imagery of a roof as steady, sheltering, inclusive and warm – things all people need, but especially the young. With rich harmonies, arching phrases and violin obbligato, this is a stunning work for concert and festival programming.

The text is onomatopoeic of their sounds while the combination and juxtapositions of 6/8 and 3/4 meters are characteristic of the music. Duration: ca.2:40.

Written for the Pembroke College Chapel Choir in November 2022, “Drop down, ye heavens” is a setting of the refrain and final stanza of the Advent Prose, itself based on various portions of the Book of Isaiah. An incessant ostinato figure on the organ accompanies rich homophony in the mixed chorus (with occasional divisi), creating a sense of tension and mystery. The ostinato develops as the piece builds to its climactic phrase: 'I have blotted out as a thick cloud thy transgressions.' Here the ostinato ceases and the voices break free. However, it soon returns and the voices hush: 'Fear not, for I will save thee.' The return of the refrain text heralds a second climax ('let the skies poor down') when the ostinato and vivid harmonies modulate before a soft and content close.

Picture a traditional stone-walled church – beautiful and powerful. Now picture it bursting with enthusiastic worshipers. There is a time-honored confidence to the musical statement Martin has given to the singers, and the words march well to the tune. A cello adds a warm strength to the anthem. The musical picture becomes complete when the opening phrase ends with the prayer, “fill this house with grace.”
