Cohen, Mary - Winter Soundscapes

7 evocative sound pictures for intermediate string quartet (Grade 4-6) that conjure up the landscapes and feelings of a tradi tional hard winter. Listen to the Yule log crackling while outside a blizzard blows in from the north; to the eerie sound of heavy icicles which have stayed frozen all day; to the drip drip drip of snow melting in watery sunlight. Go back in time a nd enjoy a winter's evening with rustics in the village inn - but beware the effect of drinking from the wassail cup.
