About this arrangement

Choral Choir,Choral (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1303857 Composed by Geoffrey Peterson. 21st Century,A Cappella,Classical,Contemporary. 7 pages. Geoffrey Peterson #893380. Published by Geoffrey Peterson (A0.1303857). Robert Frost wrote “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” in 1922. Frost referred to the poem as his “best bid for remembrance.” It was published, along with other celebrated poems, including “Fire and Ice” and “Nothing Gold Can Stay,” in his collection “New Hampshire” in 1923. I intended the slow repeating tone cluster chords in the last section as a solemn meditation on death. I wanted to be as deliberate as possible with the poem’s two concluding quintessential lines “And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.” Whose woods these are I think I know.His house is in the village though;He will not see me stopping hereTo watch his woods fill up with snow.My little horse must think it queerTo stop without a farmhouse nearBetween the woods and frozen lakeThe darkest evening of the year.He gives his harness bells a shakeTo ask if there is some mistake.The only other sound’s the sweepOf easy wind and downy flake.The woods are lovely, dark and deep,But I have promises to keep,And miles to go before I sleep,And miles to go before I sleep.
