The World's Desire was commissioned by the Choir of Truro Cathedral for their service of Nine Lessons and Carols in December 2008, to be performed after the eighth lesson. Setting a text by G. K. Chesterton, it is highly original yet approachable, and develops the opening melodic motif to provide a sense of cohesion throughout the piece.
