The sun sits elevated in the blue sky of spring, warming the pure, white snow. As it begins to melt, a few translucent icicles gradually start to drip. This continues until more thawing icicles join in, and small drips turn into steady trickles. Pools of water form, steadily migrating together and flowing across the landscape into streams. The water progresses towards undulating, cascading torrents and eventually eases into gentle rivers of slow-moving water. This piece is shaped by delicate, melodic phrasing and requires a sensitive touch to emulate the small droplets. The use of the sustain pedal will help soften the harmonies to replicate the hues of a watercolour painting.

The opening key of A Natural Minor depicts a cold and eerie morning before the dawn has broken. The key change to A Major warms the listener as the day approaches, and creatures from the earth and sky begin to wake. Notice the sounds of the day including bird calls (bar 35), the sun rising (bar 45), and church bells pealing in the distance (bar 58). As the texture in the music intensifies, it symbolises all forms of life engaging in their daily activities (bar 63). As the climax unfurls (bar 73), the focus returns to the majestic sun, as it continues its journey into the sky.This piece is to be played with the sustain pedal throughout. Specific pedal suggestions have been marked in various bars. Touches of rubato are required at times to allow the piece space. The melodic line must always be emphasized over the accompaniment, regardless of the clef.
