Program Notes

This flowing work commences with quiet dignity and charm. There are limitless teaching possibilities available in this lyric work. The seamless flow of the pensive melody and harmony will present programming opportunities year after year. As rewarding to hear as it is to play.

- Program Note from publisher


Your heart can be empty because you cannot see them
Or you can be full of the love that they showed for you

You can remember them and only that they are gone
Or you can cherish their memory and let it live on.

You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn you back,
Or you can do what they would want, smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
