Humphrey Clucas is known for a wide range of choral and vocal music, alongside a growing body of instrumental music, and this beautiful and evocative song is set to words by A.E. Housman.
Originally for voice and lute,Evenfall also works well with piano accompaniment and the edition includes versions for high voice (A minor) and low voice (E minor). The accompaniment is simple and supportive, allowing the flowing melody to soar above, with atonal and accessible style which should appeal to singers of all ages and abilities.
