is a setting of three of Christie’s poems, each offering a different view of being alone. The first song, 'Autumn Migration', describes the flight of a flock of birds across the sky pursued by a ‘single late flyer’ stitching ‘together earth and sky’. The second song, 'Night Garden', evokes the delicate fragrance of a still summer’s evening in which ‘lives too small to risk the light’ bravely begin to stir. The final song, 'Would Like To Meet', presents a ‘Lonely Hearts’ column, with a comic difference. Commissioned by the Canterbury Chamber Choir and first performed in 2005.
