The Snow: 3-Part Mixed Choral Octavo

Crisp eighth-note figures and steady sleigh bells create the feeling of a jaunty sleigh ride while contrasting legato sections evoke the chill of blowing snow. Sopranos exclaim the title over and over as others interject with words from Emily Dickinson's wintertime poem. Some repetition makes for ease of learning, but the unexpected harmonic progression keeps things fresh.
