Andy Beck.
Andy
Beck brings his gift for
vivid text painting,
evocative piano motives,
and tuneful melodies to a
favorite wintertime poem.
Though not a
word-for-word setting,
the themes of the Elinor
Wylie's words are evident
from the snow-covered
introduction, winding
melody, and expressive
andante, to the silken
harmonic palette and lacy
choral layers. Choose
this piece with the
confidence that it has
been carefully
constructed to encourage
musicality and artistry
from any ensemble.
Program the eloquent
concert and contest work
from fall to spring,
anytime there might be
snow on the ground. We
shall walk in velvet
shoes . . . under a veil
of lace. This title is
available in MakeMusic
Cloud.
