"A Child Sings at Thanksgiving" was adapted and rewritten for guitar from the final selection from my "Songs for Children," composed for solo piano in 1994. By presenting the Thanksgiving Hymn "We Gather Together" in an abstracted and fleeting way, the work perhaps evokes an adult's distant memories of holidays past.
