Description
“Winter Windows” is a cycle of songs that each offer a “window” into a different wintry scene. There is, of course, a snow-man, and there are snowflakes and fields piled high in snow drifts, but the piece also reflects the darkness of winter in the loneliness of a bird calling out in the wintry darkness, a gentle lullaby lovingly watching over a babe in the dark of a winter night, and the welcome warmth of a fireside after a day of work out in the winter woods.
