SKU: AP.48814

Composed by Ruth Morris Gray. Performance Music Ensemble; Single Titles. Alfred Choral Designs. Secular; Winter. Choral Octavo. 12 pages. Alfred Music #00-48814. Published by Alfred Music (AP.48814).

UPC: 038081561387. English. Words by Robert Frost.

Robert Frost's famous poem describes the woods as lovely, dark, and deep, and the same can be said about this appealing setting for winter concerts. The minor key casts a pensive backdrop for the vivid imagery of the text. The composer shows her teaching prowess by sculpting a line that harmonizes easily when sung in thirds and fits together perfectly when echoed from part to part. Developing choirs will appreciate the balance of emotional depth in the words and approachable challenges in the vocal parts. Sing the cue notes to quickly convert the 2-part voicing to S.S.A.

This elegant and nostalgic piece depicts gentle snow falling as twilight fades on a winter's eve. The legato theme is heard in several sections, featuring a flowing accompaniment with modal shifts as players alternate between F-sharp and F-natural. Rich harmonies, slurs, and sustained pedal-tone pitches allow students to work on playing with good tone and bow control. The contrasting staccato section sparkles like snowflakes in the golden sun, with easy meter changes and a playful syncopated feel. In a quiet finale, the piece ends with a soft diminuendo reflecting the last rays of sunlight, vanishing over the darkening horizon.

The creation of the WindWorks label represents an expanded relationship between the North Texas Wind Symphony and GIA Publications. GIA’s generous support and ongoing dedication to wind music has made it possible for the ensemble to continue producing recordings of the highest quality that are a testament to the perseverance and work ethic of everyone involved. While the first 34 releases in the series, initiated in 1989, remain with the Klavier label, this broadened alliance with GIA affords the opportunity to consolidate all of the current projects under one publishing roof. The diverse set of offerings consists of WindWorks (which includes the CD and DVD series), the Composer’s Collection, and the Teaching Music through Performance in Band resource recordings. Partnering in this way creates exciting possibilities that allow the imaginative output to stay focused on the ongoing mission: to provide first-class recordings that accentuate the comprehensiveness, depth, and value of the wind symphony medium and its music. Contents: 1. For the President’s Own (John Williams) 2–4. Three Short Stories (Gernot Wolfgang) 2. Uncle Bebop 3. Rays of Light 4. Latin Dance 5. In the World of Spirits (Bruce Broughton) 6. The Ringmaster’s March (John Mackey) 7. Winter Dreams (Michael Daugherty) 8–10. Wine-Dark Sea (John Mackey) 8. Hubris 9. Immortal Thread, So Weak 10. The Attentions of Souls.

An emblem that transcends cultures, religions, and time periods, the flickering candle offers a message of joy, hope, and peace that can reach every human heart. Start with the spark of a single voice on the opening solo, and then light your choir's inner flame when the entire group joins. Simple, with a folk-like quality; artful, as the composer explores dark versus light, major versus minor.
