    36. William Lloyd-Webber: Moon Silver

    William Lloyd Webber’s two-part song is about a magic boat: ‘I know of a lovely magic boat; on a silver sea she rides afloat, with a cargo of pearl and silver beans to fashion the little children’s dreams’ It recently was given a beautiful arrangement for two cellos by the composer's son Julian Lloyd Webber and played by him with his wife Jiaxin.
