The First Snowfall

Story Behind The Song

Inspired by a drive across upstate NY in early November, when the first snow is the most beautiful.

Song Description

A peaceful waltz for string quartet and dobro about the first snowfall of the year. Combines elements of celtic and orchestral music with earthy folk dobro flavors. Evokes the change in the season, with a stirring second half.
