    Something Will Cloud Her Glittering Footsteps For 8 singers (4x any voice and 4x SATB) Performance instructions: Group A - the four singers in this group (any voices) will be a short distance away from four cardboard boxes full of sentences and coloured paper. Singers in this group will be individually moving forwards towards the boxes, (any singer can go to any box) picking out a strip of white paper and then moving around the performance space freely singing the sentence they are holding. When the sentence is pulled out from the box coloured paper should be pulled out at the same time and scattered on the floor. Each sentence should have a combination of singing, whispering and shouting. The effects need not be equally distributed and can be interpreted in any fashion (shouting could include screaming, whispering could include miming etc) When the line has been performed the singer returns to their original position, ready to repeat the journey. There is no need to rush to do or sing something. Group B - the four singers in this group (SATB) are stationary, with set positions and music stands, facing (at a slight angle) towards the audience. Each singer has a page of music, ten sentences which can be sung at any tempo, in any order with silence between the lines of five to fifty-five seconds, where the singers may choose to close their eyes. Exact pitches are not absolutely necessary, as long as the shape and contour of the line is reproduced. For each line of music singers should focus towards one place only (the corner of the room, the ceiling, an audience members eyes, the feet of another singer etc.) Each singer has a prepared/memorised line which they will break away from the ensemble at an unpremeditated time and sing anywhere, in any style, in the performance space: this should not be discussed prior to performance and singers should try to be as individual as possible. Accidentals only apply to the notes they immediately precede. Both groups start together. One singer from group B will have a stopwatch and at approximately eight minutes (when all performers are in view) they will walk forward, slowly, four steps - on the fourth step sound will cease immediately.
