Stopping by Woods on a snowy Evening-Robert Frost-Montreal Welsh Male Choir/ Claude-Marie Landré

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" is a poem written in 1922 by Robert Frost, and published in 1923 in his New Hampshire volume. Imagery and personification are prominent in the work. It was Frost's favorite of his own
poems and Frost in a letter to Louis Untermeyer called it "my best bid for remembrance.

Randall Thompson (April 21, 1899 July 9, 1984) was an American composer, particularly noted for his choral works.

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.


My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.


He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sounds the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.


The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.




Robert Lee Frost (March 26, 1874 January 29, 1963) was an American poet. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech.[

Oh pul-leez! Have you actually listened to a recording of this piece with the tempo slower? It's deadly boring. This is the perfect tempo.

Slow down the tempo.
