I worked with a couple from Vermont on this piece…very few requests for the composition, other than to include in the background some reference to Camel’s Hump Mountain in Huntington, VT, as they live not far from this location. Recollecting the dramatic lighting of the Green Mountains, when I lived for a short time in Warren, Vermont, the sunlit slope of the mountain sort of echos the sunlit side of the barn. The result, “Norther Peaks.”
