Alexander Borodin: Polovtsian Dance No.1

This enticing choral arrangement of the well-known first Polovtsian Dance from Borodin's Prince Igor juxtaposes the music of a Russian with text from Act 4 of The Tempest - 'Our revels now are ended'. Chilcott masterfully combines the SSAATTBB forces with wordless upper-voice solos and an optional guitar line in a calm yet powerful evocation of the text.

A featured song on the album Into The Light with Kaori Muraji(guitar) and The Sixteen conducted by Harry Christophers.
