Autumn Colors
Autumn is always an exciting time of the year for children as they head back to school and fall sports. For the composer John O’Reilly, autumn is a special time because of the dramatic colors that dot the Adirondack Mountains in New York State.

This lyrical ballad portrays the warm feelings the composer experiences when the leaves put on their yearly display of beautiful colors. (2:20) Correlates with Book 2. Page 13SKU: AL31685 -

Conductors will appreciate the opportunity to teach extended phrases and legato style. “Vespers” is the sunset evening prayer of the Orthodox Church, and during the canonical hours of an all-night vigil, the “Ave Maria” would be sung at midnight, hence the 12 chime notes at the apex of the piece.
