The two outer movements draw their words and inspiration from boisterous cries of 17th century market vendors as once featured in 'The Cries of London' by Orlando Gibbbons. The second movement features the words of a Scottish poet, William Dunbar (c. 1460-c.1520), in which he praises the English capital, and includes the line 'London, thou art the Flower of cities all'. Together, these settings evoke a surprisingly contemporary impression of London's sights, sounds, and moods, inspiring some irresistible music, by turns contemplative and unquenchably thrilling. This 'capital' cantata was written in 2001 for the Diamond Jubilee of the Barnet Choral Society, of which Chilcott is President.  less

Go, sleep little Jesus! The wind's riding by To set all the candles Alight in the sky. A candle for Kingship, Sweet laughter it brings And mirth's Golden music, The riches of Kings. Go sleep little Jesus! The wind's riding by To set all the candles Alight in the sky But oh! in the skytop Up there I can see A cross, it's shining, It's shining on thee, Go sleep, little Jesus! The wind's riding by To set all the candles Alight in the sky. "Star Candles" is available on the compact disc Joyous Day! distributed through Clarion Records.

The work, called Poohratorio of course, is due to be published once AA Milne Goes into public domain (2031).  less
