  • I heard you singing when the dawn was grey
    And silver dew on ev'ry blossom lay;
    And though the rising sun too soon drank up the dew,
    I thought I heard you singing all the long day through.
    I heard you singing in the silent hour
    When evening came with sleep for bird and flow'r;
    A song like happy murmuring of woodland streams,
    I thought I heard you singing down the vale of dreams.
    Beloved, when the last call echoes clear,
    And I must part from all that is so dear,
    I shall not fear the valley that before me lies,
    If I may hear you singing as I close my eyes.

    I learned this song with my singing teacher, 60 years ago, and I still love it. Brings back memories.

    Depending what mood I'm in has a very cheeky habit of putting a tear in my eye and a lump in my throat :-) although I love Dambusters March I so wish more coates was played

    Re "wiwd_2002" comment below:
    Possible comments by a Music Festival Adjudicator who did not know these singers and had never heard them sing before:
    Test Piece: “I Heard You Singing”, Lyrics by: Royden Barrie and Music by: Eric Coates:
    Alfred Piccover’s 1933 performance (Recording):
    [Comments after making allowances for poor 1933 recording and musical tastes in 1933]
    Diction too exacerbated (not necessary to sing the Vowels).
    At times he tends to let the vocal line fall between words (“Scooping”).
    However, overall the piece was well sung with good dynamics.
    Stuart Burrows’ above performance (Recording):
    Beautiful tone with clean entries and exits from phrases.
    Magnificent steady vocal line and phrasing.
    Clear diction but not overdone.
    Overall this was a superb performance.
