The Snowman and the Bridge

Kerry and I love to take road trips. It was something we did early on in our relationship and continue to this day. One winter during our courtship, we traveled to the Berkshires and spent the weekend. On the way home we stopped for dinner at a beautiful country inn before starting for home. We sat in front of a large window and felt the warmth of the fireplace surround us.

As the sun was going down it began to snow. Softly at first, then harder and harder - it was like a scene from a movie. We ate and quietly talked about never going back home. "Lets stay here and live" we said. But, it was not meant to be and home we went - but the moment was forever.

The piece is based on a melody that Kerry had written when she was young. 

Score:  Oboe / Harp
