This piece can do well on its own merit, or it can be joined by two others in a unique Shakespeare Suite, each piece being for a different voicing. To perform all three, divide the SATB choir, the women getting their turn first with Sigh No More Ladies (SBMP 1028); next the men perform Take, O Take Those Lips Away; and finally all join in with It Was a Lover and His Lass (SBMP 1030). Clever writing abounds for both the voices and the piano. Add a bit of staging to make the performance extra special.
