As One was written to mark the centenary of World War I. The song is written for a SATB choir and is sung a cappella. It is a contemplative piece which explores themes of togetherness in adversity and the call for peace. Its opening phrase mimics that of the Last Post and it is intended to be sung as part of an act of Remembrance.
Lyrics:
As one they stood alone
As one they gazed into the unknown
Laid bare in rains of steel
Deep veins of mire to call their home
Bade forth with flags of praise
Thenceforth as one to end their days
From distant shores
Their souls cry out for us to remember
As blood bore fertile earth
One soaring call was brought to birth
A seed awakening
A proclamation now to serve
As one their voices come
As one they call the Earth to arms
Their anthem strong
A song imploring us to remember
Remember, we shall remember
As darkness plundered then
So darkness wounds the Earth again

The choir performs concerts each semester and also sings at Remembrance Day ceremonies, convocation ceremonies, and other events on campus and in the community.
We are a volunteer, non-auditioned group open to all, but choir members are expected to regularly attend rehearsals and the semester retreat, and to practice their parts on their own time. We usually put up practice files under “Resources” (members-only access) so that you can download your part and listen to it on whatever portable music-playing device you own. No musical experience is needed, but the ability to read music is an asset (if you can't read music, we'll help you learn). less

We have sung this song in another arrangement many times in concert with Steve Knightley and Show Of Hands. This new version by Kirsten Pagel, is for a female quartet, with rich dark harmonies and a tender, aching feel.
We dedicate it to all who have passed through war, both in the past and unfortunately now, in the present. We also sing it for those within our communities that have recently lost a loved one. It has been such a difficult time to be grieving. We sing it for you to remember the best times, the friendship and the comradery and most of all, for the love that you shared together.
Our charity for this song, is South Brent and District Caring, a small charity that looks after people in the community, provides crisis relief and comfort.

60% of the proceeds from this song will be donated to charity.

3. On the other side of the Morave (river in Croatia) a girl is reading the newspaper
This outdoor performance was the culmination of a six-week project which creates a choir from scratch for one night only. Each winter and summer, Chris Rowbury gathers a random bunch of singers from in and around Ipswich. There are no auditions and all songs are taught and learnt by ear. Usually eight songs are learnt in six two-hour sessions and in the summer are performed outdoors near Ipswich. http://chrisrowbury.com less
