Almost Autumn

A loving tribute and celebration in memory of a well-loved, respected, and successful music teacher. Meant to be a celebration of her life, it opens in a joyous manner, recalling the many happy memories she created. The middle section is more reflective and solemn, evocative of a formal goodbye from her many friends and colleagues. A recapitulation of the opening material is again active and uplifting, representing the comforting message that she will always be here in spirit.
