Commissioned by the Mount Royal Youth Choir in Calgary, this setting of a famous Shakespearean lyric from As You Like It is an excellent example of Chatman’s characteristically fluent harmonic and melodic style. It begins and ends with a dark but engaging tune. This tune alternates with a fast “heigh-ho” section, which is much sprightlier, although still tinged with Shakespeare’s melancholy. The entire piece is underpinned by a richly appointed chamber orchestra or piano accompaniment.
