Description:
This is the last of four new tunes I did for a Christmas family photo DVD. Each of the new tunes was based on themes that came out of the hundreds of photos I scanned into create the DVD slide show.

This one, as you may be able to guess from the title is based on all the photos of the big snows wer used to have when I was a child and before, something we haven't had in almost two decades now thanks to global warming.

The timing on posting this one is good, because, baby, it's cold outside and going to get colder. Get a warm cup of hot chocolate and enjoy.

It's snowing brooklyn &mdash 01/29/07 - 12:00:54 AM
as I'm listening and writing. What a beautiful atmosphere you've created here - very evocative of "the season" with none of the obvious cues. Sure the bells are there - but they serve the song so well that they sound inevitable. A really charming piece of music - in that it casts a spell. Thanks.

Oooo, bells &mdash 01/29/07 - 02:04:51 PM
Very fitting for a family foto DVD. Sounds very snowy all right. I like the 'old photo' colors in the song art, and it reminds me of places in NY near where I grew up. Sounds cool, J.

I would send this in to Apple &mdash 01/29/07 - 09:48:17 PM
This would go well w/ any iphoto x-mas slide show - Lots of big snow flakes gently falling to the scene... Very nice mister JG! Very nastalgic mood you've created. Very pretty.

I was on the edge of my seat awaiting a melodic vocal harmony thing, from you. It wasn't missing, I just somehow found myself expectant.

Nice job, mister sir! Thank you. Macca

As delicate as one of those snowflakes that it symbolizes! Another wonderful atmosphere. Roomy, light and flowing. Nice sounds and melody overflowing!

for the past two years i've been trying to motivate to put all the past family photos on disk. 100 years so it's alot. i hadn't thought of adding music until these gems you've shared. where you putting all these through i movie? this is probably my fav of the series.

This is a wonderful piece. I like how you keep the bells on top while bringin in the strings; they lift the bells higher. Very beautiful! /Mikki

I like this... just going through your songs...I like looking back and
remembering my youth and the music and smells that go with it.
I remember my old house that I grew up in. Great memories.
