The New Winter Songbook is a collection of twenty-one songs reflecting contemporary experiences of, and attitudes towards, the winter season from composers spanning a range of experiences and backgrounds. Many, though not all, are settings of secular texts. Whilst more traditional winter themes do recur within the songs – those of cold, loss, stillness, grief and darkness – those of belief, faith, and hope, offer an emotional counterbalance. Each individual composer approaches and explores these themes from their own perspective, lending their voice to a musical tapestry, expressing what it means to reflect upon and celebrate the season of winter today. The songs are to be published by Hal Leonard as an anthology in November 2025. On White Meadows Music by Judith Weir Lyrics by Wilhelm Müller A shadow thrown by the moon is my companion. On white meadows, I seek deer tracks. Signs on the road, pointing the way — I wander, relentless, restless, yet seeking rest. Many coloured leaves here and there on the trees — I stand lost in thought. The storm has torn apart the sky's grey mantle — tattered clouds fly about. An organ grinder plays with numb fingers — the dogs growl.
