Mother and child await the return of a father out on the whaling ships in this sensitive setting of a children’s rhyme. A rich folk-like melody, subtle counterpoints and changes of mode bring out both the hope and fear of the story, ending in the beautiful calm of sustained voices against a gently rippling piano.
