By Night—Elaine Hagenberg. Harriet Prescott
Spofford's poem describes a young woman who
discovers a bold new world of thrilling beauty
when she ventures beyond her familiar walls.
Accompanied by piano and optional violin, cello,
and percussion, this dramatic work depicts the
text in epic fashion, alternating between sections
of galloping frenetic energy and sedate periods of
calm chordal harmony. An exhilarating piece for
treble choirs!

and a supportive piano accompaniment.
Optional full score and parts for violin and
cello accompaniment are available from the
publisher.
