Product Description

A setting for unaccompanied mixed choir (SATB) of the poem FIRE AND ICE by Robert Frost (1874 - 1963).  Duration ca. 3'15".

Published in December 1920 in Harper's Magazine and again in 1923 in his Pulitzer Prizewinning book New Hampshire, Fire and Ice is one of Robert Frost's most popular poems.  Some have asserted that the poem is a compression of Dante's Inferno. In an anecdote he recounted in 1960, prominent astronomer Harlow Shapley claimed to have inspired Fire and Ice in an encounter with Frost a year before the poem was published. Frost asked Shapley how the world will end, and Shapley responded that either the sun will explode and incinerate the Earth, or the Earth will somehow escape this fate only to end up slowly freezing in deep space.
