From the composer: In my search for a suitable text for a choral composition on the subject of insomnia, I turned to that indispensable tool of the sleepless everywhere: the Internet! My late-night surfing led me to Mick Winter’s amusing “41 Simple Tips to Help You Get to Sleep. Mr. Winter graciously granted me permission to set some of his words. Mick’s text proved an inspiration, allowing me much opportunity for mood contrasts and word painting, in the great Handelian tradition.
