Four Calling Birds
Ella Hohnen-Ford

The Corvus Consort has commissioned twelve of the UK’s most exciting young composers to compose twelve new miniature works for a choir of twelve voices, based on the lyrics of the well-known song ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’. The new commissions were recorded and filmed in December 2020, and are being released online in twelve short videos throughout the Twelve Days of Christmas.

Ella Hohnen-Ford has developed an unorthodox and genre-defying approach to writing and interpreting music, with an unusual musical background as an improvising vocalist.

About the piece, Ella says:

Four Calling Birds... here they are dressed up as Twelve Singing Humans. And one of the few phrases in this song I always remember the words to! Happy Holidays everybody.
