This warm, lush work for early-intermediate string orchestra has simple, playable, yet interesting elements for all performers. Teaching opportunities include legato and pizzicato articulations, dynamics changes, a focus on intonation, and playing together in simple, repeated rhythms. The sonorous harmonies make this piece enjoyable to teach and to play as well as to hear for the audience. The optional harp part adds another layer of beauty and interest.
