Review:
Suitable for anytime throughout the year, this traditional Irish melody know by the tune, "Star of County Down", has been adapted by composer Rory Cooney into a popular new hymn used in several new hymnals. This setting by Karen Thompson presents a rolling 8th note pattern that suggests a motion of turning yet still maintains the beautiful Celtic atmosphere. 81 measures in length, it is set in d minor and f minor.
