List of choral works at CPDL

Sacred works From thee all skill and science flow There is a green hill far away

Secular works Come gentle zephyr Come, follow me Come, my friends Here my Chloe, charming maid I know you false Nymphs of the forest O cruel Amarillis Oh, the sweet contentment On a bank beside a willow See the chariot at hand Slow fresh fount Wake now, my love When the fair moon When the wind blows in the sweet rose-tree

 

Choral works not at CPDL

Bloom gentle flower: ballad for four voices Blow light thou balmy air: glee for four voices By Celia's Arbour Come follow me Forget me not: glee for four voices Great shepherd of thy people Her eyes the glow worm lend thee: glee for four voices

Now the storm begins to lower: ode for five voices O, nightingale The sun shines fair on Carlisle wall: glee The traveller: glee for three voices Two Canons: i) O Lord, ii) Hear my prayer When the wind blows in the sweet rose tree: glee for four voices
