Orchestra violin 1, violin 2, violin 3, viola, cello, bass - Grade 2 SKU: CF.YAS200F Composed by Aaron Fryklund. Sws. Yas. Full score. 8 pages. Carl Fischer Music #YAS200F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YAS200F). ISBN 9781491157572. UPC: 680160916153. 9 x 12 inches.This elegant and nostalgic piece depicts gentle snow falling as twilight fades on a winter's eve. The legato theme is heard in several sections, featuring a flowing accompaniment with modal shifts as players alternate between F-sharp and F-natural. Rich harmonies, slurs, and sustained pedal-tone pitches allow students to work on playing with good tone and bow control. The contrasting staccato section sparkles like snowflakes in the golden sun, with easy meter changes and a playful syncopated feel. In a quiet finale, the piece ends with a soft diminuendo reflecting the last rays of sunlight, vanishing over the darkening horizon.This elegant and nostalgic piece depicts gentle snow falling as twilight fades on a winter’s eve.
