Composed by Everett Reed. Secular Chorals. Songs of Innonence Choral Suite. Octavo. Published by Aspen Grove Music (AG.2004).

Songs of Innocence is our first, and best selling choral suite. Published in 1987, it has been acclaimed wherever it has been performed. The music is rhythmic and fun, and strikingly sets the classic texts by William Blake. This is a piece you would be proud to perform anytime. Published as separate octavos, the five movements of Songs of Innocence are listed immediately below. The text of this song illuminates its pastoral feel. "When the voices of children are heard on the green and laughing is heard on the hill, My heart is at rest within my breast And everything else is still." A reviewer wrote of Nurse's Song, "Unison sections alternate with five-part divisions in close harmony, often adding major sevenths and ninths to give the music a beautiful impressionistic flavor.".
