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 Goodnight Moon 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. I later arranged Goodnight Moon for SATB choir and piano. More recently, my dear friend Verena Mösenbichler-Bryant arranged the piece for wind ensemble and soloist. The melody of Goodnight Moon will forever make me think of those quiet nights, reading my son to sleep. -Eric Whitacre\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInventory # :  04006477\u003cbr\u003e\nUPC:  840126907797\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN:  \u003cbr\u003e\nWidth:  9\"\u003cbr\u003e\nLength:  12\"\u003cbr\u003e\nHeight:  0.322\"\u003cbr\u003e\nProduct Weight:  1.1 lbs.\u003cbr\u003e\nNumber of Pages:\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hal Leonard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49345677754662,"sku":"04006477","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0128\/7762\/7456\/files\/2ae902a4-9c7b-5d8a-8eac-3b5b78dc1dea.jpg?v=1722821680","url":"https:\/\/retrostarmusic.com\/products\/goodnight-moon-arranged-for-grade-3-4-concert-band-eric-whitacre-concert-band-sc","provider":"Retrostar Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
