The Closed Well

The Deep Places Are Locked The Closed Well Choir Songs from The Twelve Plates of WitnessFrom the Fraternal Order of the Closed Well comes The Deep Places Are Locked, the first gathered song-cycle of The Closed Well Choir.These songs give voice to Rev. T. R. Oliver Croftbarrel’s recovered sequence, The Twelve Plates of Witness — engraved visions of sealed waters, national memory, buried grief, covenant witness, restrained judgement, and mercy holding back the deep.This is not performance for fame. This is not music for spectacle. This is witness.The well is closed. The waters are restrained. The hourglass runs. The watchtower stands. The branch still lives. The witness waits.Each song follows one plate, beginning with The Closed Well, where the whole witness begins: the deep places are real, but locked; the waters are dangerous, but restrained; and mercy itself may sometimes appear as an iron door.The deep places are locked. The waters are restrained. Mercy holds the iron door till the Lord shall speak again.The Deep Places Are Locked is part of The Ballad Dodecet™ universe.Explore the recovered archive: 12plates.orgSupport the show🎵 The Ballad Dodecet™  - Twelve Stories.
