song for a corpus V

The Testimony of Patience Kershaw, a song about a young girl, set in the mining industries of the 19th century. Originally by Frank Higgins, but here sung by Rachel and Becky Unthank, otherwise known as The Unthanks. Another song that serves to remind me of my connection to this particular location and its rich and difficult history. A nice bit of orchestra, lyrics that catch your heart and a simple video with integrity .
