Additional Information

This is an orchestral adaptation of a song-cycle "Four Winter Postcards"; the voice & piano version has been recently realised as my Op.1g.

This started life as part of my AS music exam portfolio in 1992, as combined with some poetic doodles from my school english classes.

I. Andante (Postcard #1, "I feel a chill from the North...")

II. Largo (Postcard #2, "Behold! A shroud of frost...")

III. Maestoso - Allegro (Postcard #3, "The winds freeze...")

IV. Lento Moderato (Postcard #4, "The first snowflake...")
