Review:
Cathy Marker is a new name to publishing and has an incredible harmonic vocabulary which allows her to beautifully paint sounds to create incredible images of the poignant hymn, "In the Bleak Midwinter." The opening eighth note musical idea unites the three statements of the melody. There are many arrangements of "In the Bleak Midwinter" but none that so vividly portray this hymn. 80 measures. Keys of Eb Major and F Major.
