Notes
Goodnight, Goodnight is a transcription of a choral work of mine that I decided to set for symphonic winds. When working on the transcription, I added some new elements to the piece, making the wind version its very own. Here is the poem that the work is inspired by:
Goodnight, Goodnight by Ashley Garofalo
Sun sets low beneath the sky
Leaves all in golden state
Stars glow at edge of twilight
And here I stay, your words await
Goodnight, Goodnight
Sky a shade of midnight blue
Moon in its glowing fate
The world at peace is a calming view
And here I stay, your words await
Goodnight, Goodnight
Distance leaves us far apart
So at midnight if I may
Wish upon the brightest star
And hear your voice so softly say
Goodnight, Goodnight
