Summer is i-cumen in for one-man-choir (mp3)

The dwsChorale delivers a rendition of the medieval canon, Sumer is i-cumen in, complete with added whimsical elements such as cuckoos and other playful sounds. The song Sumer is icumen in, resonates with vibrant voices echoing, "Lhude sing, cuccu!" as it describes the growth of seeds and the blooming of mead, symbolising the arrival of spring. "Sing, cuccu!" the chorus chimes in, representing the bleating of lambs after their mother and the lowing of calves. The text also portrays how a bullock jumps and a buck farts, all culminating in a cheerful sing, "Cuccu!" The repetition of "Cuccu, cuccu," indicates the cuckoo's delightful song, closing out with "Wel singes thu, cuccu."
