A serene and expansive setting of the treasured text by Sara Teasdale, this work for SSA voices, piano and flute offers both challenges and rewards for high school women's choirs and up and advanced children's choirs. Vivid text painting, dynamic and harmonic contrasts create a stunning atmosphere of choral beauty and expressiveness.
The sturdy melody of a favorite Sacred Harp tune is first presented in unison by the choir, decorated by a flute obbligato. Verse 3 is sung by a soloist, while in verse 4 the choir returns with the melody and a descant for a jubilant finish. Ideal for Christmas concerts or festival performances by children's choirs and middle school.
