The Last Leaf of Fall

A new composition by Shawn Johnson. This piece is dedicated to fall which is both a time of harvest and a time of transition, preparing us for the harsh winter that follows. This work features a bittersweet tone designed to resemble the feelings of transition in life from one chapter to another (best enjoyed with headphones).
