Be the first to review this product

A painterly setting for unaccompanied SSAATTBB choir of the poem by Walt Whitman (1819 - 1892). The composition received a reading by the Gregg Smith Singers in 2001 at the Adirondack Festival of American Music. The Oregon Repertory Singers presented the premiere performance at the Oregon Bach Festival in 2002, and in 2003 Seattle Pro Musica selected the work for performance on their 30th Anniversary concerts entitled "Best of the Northwest." Tom Manoff, classical music reviewer for National Public Radio, wrote: "Greg Bartholomew, a fine composer not afraid of accessibility, set Walt Whitman's To a Locomotive in Winter in a sturdy, lyrical style. Tuneful and diatonic, the music seemed appropriately Whitman-esque." (Duration: 6 min.)
