Snow—Teresa Jennings. A real student
favorite, the challenge of this song is the
exciting rhythms. Starting in unison, an
optional second part enters midway - but
you will definitely want to add it! Though you
can perform it a cappella, the instrumental
tracks are delightfully minimalistic, giving
singers a chance to show off their vocal
skills, musicianship, and handclapping! The
track is sold separately.

deep, simple yet stunning.

The Snow—William Cutter/ed. Judith
Clurman. This brief and inquisitive
setting of Lewis Carroll's memorable
text from "Through the Looking Glass"
is a unique choice for your mixed choir.
The winter-themed text paired with stark
and expressive choral writing ponders,
"I wonder if the snow loves the trees and
fields, that it kisses them so gently?"

The Snow—Ruth Morris Gray. Crisp
eighth-note figures and steady sleigh bells
create the feeling of a jaunty sleigh ride
while contrasting legato sections evoke the
chill of blowing snow. Sopranos exclaim the
title over and over as others interject with
words from Emily Dickinson's wintertime
poem. A fantastic winter feature!
