The lovely piano introduction evokes the serenity
of a quiet, snowy winter's night. Words of comfort
and assurance are sung to the sleeping baby in a
gorgeously nuanced choral texture that includes
an a cappella section for solo underscored by
choral humming. This tender lullaby can be sung
in winter concerts or Christmas worship.

L And Miles to Go Before I Sleep—Michael
Ryan. This setting of one of Robert Frost's
most well-known poems has great educational
value, teaching lyricism, musicality, and the
poetic connection. In a strophic form, it begins
in unison, easing into clever canonic imitation,
then alternating between sections. An emotional
half-step modulation signals the final verse,
which echoes the iconic words: "And miles to
go before I sleep."
