The Bomb is Made
by Anthony Ritchie, for SATB choir and orchestra, Opus 99
The Bomb is Made
A reflective setting of the final verse of Keith Sinclair's moving poem on the theme of nuclear destruction. Written as a concert opener, but could fit within a programme as well. It is not technically demanding.
