Warning: you might think this version rather faster and higher-pitched than you are used to! We find that people either love or hate us singing this; luckily the audience loved it.

Text from "Ode" by Arthur O'Shaughnessy with additional verses by Patti Drennan. Recorded live on May 3, 2015, at All Saints Episcopal Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by the Chamber Singers ensemble of the Girl choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Accompanist: Gayle Giese. We are the Music makers, And we are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams;— World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams: Yet we are the movers and shakers of the world for ever, it seems.  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.
