The HearthStone
Grade 4
for concert band
by Julie Giroux
Composed for The Desert Winds and Charles A. Maguire, Conductor
In every life there should be a person who keeps us warm, keeps us fed and keeps us safe. Like a stone from a hearth they have been heated over and over, tested in the hottest of fires and have come out stronger, more resilient and tougher than before, ready to be tested once more. I liken those types of people to hearthstones – reflective, warm, strong and capable of keeping a hearth together. Hearthstones come in all shapes and sizes and are called a variety of things, but for quite a few of us, we just call them Dad. This music is for all the good fathers in the world. J.G.
