Somewhere around reading number 500, I began hearing little musical fragments as I read, and over time those fragments began to blossom into a simple, sweet lullaby. I knew it was a long shot, but I asked my manager, Claire Long, to contact HarperCollins and see if they would allow the text to be set to music. To my surprise and delight they agreed - the first time they had ever allowed \u003cem\u003eGoodnight Moon\u003c\/em\u003e to be used in such a way. I composed the piece relatively quickly, originally setting the text for harp, string orchestra, and my son's mother, soprano Hila Plitmann.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI later arranged \u003cem\u003eGoodnight Moon\u003c\/em\u003e for SATB choir and piano. More recently, my dear friend Verena Mösenbichler-Bryant arranged the piece for wind ensemble and soloist. The melody of \u003cem\u003eGoodnight Moon\u003c\/em\u003e will forever make me think of those quiet nights, reading my son to sleep.\" –Eric Whitacre\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hal Leonard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43784647114831,"sku":"HL04005423","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/871131d70c89530a6d022810049b5362.jpg?v=1762536561","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/whitacre-goodnight-moon-arr-for-soprano-wind-ensemble-hal-leonard","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
