The text of "There is No Rose" is included in "The Trinity Carol Roll," a 15th-century manuscript of English carols. It alternates between Latin and Middle English, a common form for carols of the period known as macaronic (any expression using a mixture of languages). This musical setting is meant to highlight the expansive and mystical nature of the words, utilizing a mix of unison and harmonic passages that morph from major to minor tonalities. It is unaccompanied and features five parts (Soprano 1 and 2, Alto, Tenor, Bass), making it suitable for an ensemble of advanced abilities. It is approximately 4 minutes in duration.
