Speak Gently...

This is a quite reflective work for keyboard quartet. The entire duration of this work does not surpass Mezzo-Forte. Many interesting texture are created with Zaninelli's use of the keyboard instruments.

Program Notes

Tread lightly, she is near
Under the snow,
Speak gently, she can hear
The daisies grow…
