Touch the Hem includes a wide range of music, from a song by Thomas Tallis written 400 years ago to a soprano solo of "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands." There are pieces from the Metropolitan Silver Band, for Celtic harp, and two numbers for Metropolitan's 54-bell carillon. Many of the numbers feature Metropolitan's celebrated choir, singing both traditional and modern songs.
