The Candy Store

Singer/songwriter Peter Neuendorffer is a member of the congregation at First Church in Boston. He has played for services on occasion, and his song "The Candy Store" has always struck me as something I'd like to set for choir.

I rarely compose music, and I sat on this project for a long time. I finally got around to it this spring, and the end result is below. I am happy to say that Peter was able to attend the service when it was sung.
