Program Notes
My favorite moment every morning comes when my 4-month-old daughter, Penelope, wakes up full of smiles and optimism. The title, Such Small Things comes from a StoryPeople print that hangs in her nursery. Brian Andreas's words perfectly capture the anticipation of her arrival into this world.

"Such Small Things" by Brian Andreas
For a long time,
there were only your footprints & laughter
in our dreams &
even from such small things,
we knew we could not wait
to love you forever.
