    Can anyone help?

    A choral piece by Caroline Shaw (sung by A Roomful of Teeth) figured somewhere on R3 in the past few days. I can't find it on any playlist and I don't know its name. It consisted of downward then upward glisaandi, the latter alighting on (mainly) very well-tuned triads. Very difficult to perform I guess, but done superbly. Can anyone help me locate it..or at least find out what it's called?

    PS It was not her Partita, which I know.

    Could it possibly "Don't Let Me Be Lonely"? Just a wild guess. I can find no mention of it in the schedule.

      According to Andrew’s wonderful listing query the only vocal piece of hers played in the last 30 days is the Partita played on Essential Classics on 19 February 1 hour 14 minutes in ..... there have been other pieces played but to the untrained eye they are not choral ......

        I'm fairly sure I heard this on Sunday Breakfast, so that would be either 14 or 21 February (just possibly 7th) - eariyish in the show.

            Well it looks like it’s been omitted from the published playlist, as has already been suggested .......

              Apologies to everyone. It was from Caroline Shaw's Partita...the Sarabande (which I thought I knew but obviously didn't!). As Antongould says it was on Essential Classics on 19 February 1 hour 14 minutes in. Thanks Anton. They just put 'Friday' on the website but no date!

              In case anyone wants to listen: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000sbbm

              And it was on the playlist.

                It was a good question ardcarp. In trying to help I heard many snippets of Roomful of Teeth (whom I had heard before, but forgot), and of Caroline Shaw's music - I have already started listening to the Partita in full. So, from me, thanks for the steer.

                  With a title like Partita, it wouldn't be obvious that it was a choral piece.

                    Absolutely no need to apologise ..... I look forward to hearing it when I reach that day on my downloaded Skellers
