When you read the prose of Robert Frost's “Stopping by Woods on Snowy Evening,†you may be struck by the beautiful imagery and quaint mood that the text conjures. Roger Emerson's brilliant choral setting of this classic American poem takes the form and structure of the (mostly) monosyllabic text and weaves a modern, familiar and truly breathtaking musical interpretation akin to a brisk, moonlit gallop of a horse and its rider! Outstanding!

In this lovely piece, though stanza one is clearly focused on the Nativity, the other three stanzas which speak of the birth, death, and resurrection of Christ in the larger context of salvation history, make this hymn much more expansive in scope. While appropriate for Christmas and Epiphany, this hymn might also find a home during Passiontide, thus highlighting connections between Incarnation and Redemption themes.

With a tune based on the beautiful English ballad Pretty Polly, Woody Guthrie's lyrics describes the challenges as well as the dignity of migrant workers in North America. With choral writing that is perfect for maturing high school voices but where there are no tenors, this is a song that encourages discussions around American farm workers, literature as the music relates to Steinbeck and his Grapes of Wrath, and the critical state of agriculture. This is a winner in every sense.
