My great-great-great-grandfather Parley Pratt was a poet and a preacher. During a mission in SouthAmerica, he wrote a poem entitled “November in Chile” describing how, despite the beautiful springweather, he longed for family and “the wintry blasts of [his] mountain home.” I wrote this solo cellopiece after reading his poem for the first time. Although I perform this as a solo cello piece, the melody does fit the poem. I’ve included the text with the sheet music, so that you can sing while you play, if you’d like.Enjoy! —Liz Show more
