Harriet Prescott Spofford’s poem “By Night” depicts a young woman who discovers a bold new world of thrilling beauty when she ventures beyond her familiar walls. A galloping accompaniment underscores this wild discovery, and a soaring wind motif in the vocal line rushes forth as if to take the viewer's breath away. A contrasting middle section pauses briefly to meditate on the beauty born in its Maker's thought before racing forward again, painting a cinematic scene of wonder and awe. An exhilarating piece to close your concert program! This Full Score and Instrumental Part product contains: 1 conductor score, 1 violin, 1 cello, and 3 percussion. The choral octavo is also available: EH1015. .
