A multi-movement work for chorus, flute, clarinet, and piano by composer and conductor Julian Wachner, is based on four poems by Victorian poet Christina Rossetti that follow the annual progress of the seasons. Cast in near symphonic proportions, each movement has its own distinct character. From buoyant spring to heavy-laden winter, Wachner deftly conveys the inherent joy and drama of the life-cycle using musical idioms that are at once both lyrically expressive and minimalistic.

Instrumental Parts include Flute, Clarinet in Bb/Bass Clarinet in Bb, Contrabass, and Piano.
