But I took on The challenge and here is The result. As always, comments are most welcomed. Email me at rain@magma.ca, if you'd like more info. I would like to acknowledge The a cappella choir that I sing in, The Stairwell Carollers, and our director Pierre Massie, for Their musical inspiration These past 26 years. And with deepest appreciation to my broTher Adam Rain and my friend Geneviève Lajoie for Their invaluable support throughout my composing journey.  less
