Throughout his life, even when in Northampton Asylum, John Clare’s poetry constantly returned to the fenland countryside of his youth, celebrating in particular three fond memories: Mary, his first love, birds of the countryside and church bells. Those Fenny Bellstakes his first bell poem, written while still living at Helford, and combines it with assonant fenland place-names, playing the part of bells, perhaps, sung by the treble. The melodies for both voices involve ‘Cambridge surprise’, a local change-ringing method. Assonance is used to combine vocal heterophony.

Those Fenny Bells was commissioned by NMC Recordings Ltd for their 'Songbook' album, and first performed by Loré Lixenberg, mezzo-soprano, Michael Chance, counter-tenor and Andred Ball, vibraphone at Kings Place, London on 3rd April 2009.
