The Beautiful Rain

The words of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow are playfully set to music in this 2-part choral. The “drip-drop” piano part sets the scene and gradually the piece becomes more animated, playing between 2/2 and 6/8 meters. Itis absolutely delightful when the section of vocal rain begins. Optional ad lib suggestions for use of rain stick and other percussion instruments are included. Available separately: StudioTrax CD. Duration: 2:37.
