This beautiful setting of an Old Irish Blessing (featuring Irish and English texts) is one of sincerity and humility. The piece begins with graceful arching phrases gently echoing one another. This section seamlessly transitions to a more traditional tune and accompaniment style, akin to a cantor supported by instrumental drones. The climax shows wonderful restraint leaving a path for the music to flow effortlessly back to the strains of the opening. A special piece!
