Like a
cozy sweater on a cold
day, this original
wintertime poem
juxtaposes warmth with
chills. Imagine the
opening descending motive
as the first falling
flake and the eventual
musical layers as
accumulating snow. Each
voice part sings in the
sweet spot of their
tessitura to garner rich
choral tone. A
harmonically vivid bridge
creates contrast and
offers a flurry of beauty
in the piano, as singers
realize the beautiful
snowflakes are fleeting,
all too soon they fade
away. Delicate yet deep,
simple yet stunning. This
title is available in
MakeMusic Cloud.
