Polyphony is joined by the Britten Sinfonia for the Mid-Winter Songs, Andrew Lucas for the organ-accompanied Psalm, and the composer himself\\u2014proving Lauridsen to be a master of sympathetic pianism (as well as a digital cymbalist).\u003cp\u003eLament For Pasiphae\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike Snow\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe Tells Her Love While Half Asleep\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMid-Winter Waking\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntercession In Late October\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEn Une Seule Fleur\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContre Qui, Rose\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDe Ton Reve Trop Plein\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLa Rose Complete\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirait-On\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Will Lift Up Mine Eyes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eO Come, Let Us Sing Unto The Lord\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAve, Dulcissima Maria\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSa Nuit D'ete\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSoneto De La Noche\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSure On This Shining Night\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55351460594049,"sku":"683574","price":12.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/61FPRV7sM2L._SL1500.jpg?v=1771503894","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/683574","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
