This arrangement of In the Bleak Midwinter attempts to capture the barren and frigid feel of winter and the warmth of the Christmas holiday that is inherent in Holst s original carol. Bookended by sounds of the wind, snapping branches, and minimal movement, the tune serves as a log on the fire that warms our hearts so that we may persevere against the cold that continues all around us.
