At first sight it is a simple sentimental piece, but beneath it lies a history Of pure imagination, enchantment and impossibility. The composer already realises he is no longer feeling what he is writing, he is just weaving a spell, over an ostinato guitar motif, to try to bring the feelings back (hence the title "Incantation"). He has found in his life that whenever he writes a Song for the object Of his desire, he has already begun to stop feeling that desire ... it is a sign that the relationship is about to change or disappear. But the whole thing is indeed enchantment and magic: you can dream and you can take the Song at face value if you wish.  less

How I wrote the composition Hope to process a miscarriage, or how I wrote I Will Lift My Eyes at a time when multiple family members, both young and old, were being diagnosed with cancer. No matter life’s challenges, music has always been an outlet for me to cope and heal. It has helped me to persevere and fight through some Of life's most difficult moments, ultimately making me a stronger person. The world can be a challenging place, but each Of us are warriors—armed with the gift to Sing, and filled with the fire, passion, drive, and grit to conquer anything.

The Song is there described as "a comic Song" written and composed by James Yorkston (Of Scotland) and arranged by Edmund Forman. Because it is noted as printed with permission Of an Edinburgh firm, there was clearly an earlier version. Although the Song is the unOfficial anthem Of Dublin and generally regarded as Irish, it was, in fact, written by a Scotsman. This outdoor performance was the culmination Of a six-week project which creates a choir from scratch for one night only. Each winter and summer, Chris Rowbury gathers a random bunch Of Singers from in and around Ipswich. There are no auditions and all Songs are taught and learnt by ear. Usually eight Songs are learnt in six two-hour sessions and in the summer are performed outdoors near Ipswich. http://chrisrowbury.com  less
