His body of work for unaccompanied and accompanied choral ensembles is rightly regarded as a landmark in the domain of Irish art music, not only on account of its globally-recognised originality of voice and its superlative re-configuration of the relationship between Irish language texts and musical soundscapes, but also because of its historical significance.
