First performed in 2016, Fire of Love started life as an extended piano improvisation, evident by the continuously running piano throughout the piece. The words, written by the composer, speak of true love and this is reflected in the slow-moving voice parts coupled with expansive and close harmonies, characteristic of many of Todd’s choral works. The third stanza brings some contrast, offering a change of mood and complexities in rhythm. The final section returns to similar themes of the opening, with a renewed focus and desire, building to a passionate outpouring before a reflective ending. Particularly ideal for concert programmes focusing of love and togetherness, Fire of Love is sure to please and uplift audiences and singers alike.
