The Long Day Closes - Arthur Sullivan
Today we bring you ‘The Long Day Closes’ composed in 1868 by Sir Arthur Sullivan to words by Henry Fothergill Chorley and recorded by Caritas in St German’s Church, Cardiff, on 21st June which just happens to be the longest day of the year! This lovely piece is a ‘part song’, i.e. a song written for several vocal parts; the highest (soprano) part takes the melody whilst the other voices (altos, tenors & basses) provide harmonies underneath the top line. Sullivan wrote the majority of his twenty part songs before his long and very productive partnership with W. S. Gilbert.
