Carol Nicholeris

Fond Farewell

On the occasion of retirement and relocation to another state, A Fond Farewell was written for a couple who had been longstanding members and strong supporters of their church. The work was premiered by the Hingham Congregational Church Choir of Hingham, Massachusetts under the direction of the composer during a service of celebration in honor of the couple. Though the expressive qualities of the music remain the same, alternative but similar verses have been provided so that the particulars of the text may be more appropriate in different situations.
