A new setting of William Butler Yeats' great poem. It arose from a memory he had of his childhood while walking along Fleet Street in London in 1888: "I had still the ambition, formed in Sligo in my teens, of living in imitation of Thoreau on Innisfree, a little island in Lough Gill" The poem is a powerful expression of Yeats' desire for a life of peace, simplicity and being close to nature. This work (SSATBB) is intended for advanced choral ensembles. For more information about my work visit www.johnnewellmusic.com.
