Product Description

Reginald Spofforth's joyful morning song transposed to a more sombre and cold Dorian mode (which also puns on "hail" as frozen rain).

The original words were:

Hail smiling morn, smiling morn,
That tips the hills with gold,
Whose rosy fingers ope the gates of day,
Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail!
Who the gay face of nature doth unfold,
At whose bright presence darkness flies away,
Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail!

my new words:

Hail frozen morn, frozen morn
That tips the hills with ice
Whose bitter fingers grasp the gates of day
Frost! Snow! Ice! Hail!
With the tired face of nature in its vice
At whose cold presence darkness seems to stay
Frost! Snow! Ice! Hail!

The pdf contains score and parts.
The sound sample is an electronic preview.
