M 2.00 Windy Nights—Cynthia Gray. A dramatic poem by Robert Louis Stevenson is the inspiration for this intense, exhilarating work, which portrays the poet's childhood fear of storms.

This ethereal setting of a traditional Irish blessing is scored in a variety of voicings with piano. Deft strokes of Celtic styling within the melody weaves throughout the vocal texture. Gradually building in intensity, it transitions into the final stanza with a burst of light, aided by a key change, then slowly draws to a quiet close. 11166201 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
