Program Notes
This delicate folk lullaby provides great thematic materials for this sensitive, lyrical setting. Introduced by a plaintive original melody in the first clarinet, this is one of the arranger's most intriguing works for band. The addition of linear, moving lines and impressionistic harmonies add color and style to this creative arrangement.
