Peaceful scenes of quiet, gentle snow are reflected in this nostalgic melody for intermediate strings. A flowing legato theme evokes warm memories of innocence and joy as it moves between the sections, allowing all players a chance to practice playing with sustained bows and beautiful tone. Moments of modulation use easy accidentals in first position to relay the mystery and magic of the season. Piano and bells add to the dream-like quality of this serene concert selection and are highly recommended. This is the quintessential sound for any winter concert.
