This powerful and passionate ballad by the Witch to her daughter from Sondheim's masterpiece Into the Woods is here set for the concert stage. It is a tour de force when performed with piano, but when using the optional instrumentation for 2 violins, viola, cello, celesta, and percussion, this will be a most memorable addition to a concert.

Thoughtful Accompaniment for Vocal Support
This SSAA arrangement of 'Children Will Listen' is exceptionally well-suited for collaborative pianists. The piano texture, crafted by Jacob Narverud, actively supports the vocal lines from Sondheim's *Into the Woods* without simply doubling them. It maintains the emotional depth, allowing singers to truly shine while providing a rich, nuanced harmonic foundation. Excellent for vocal coaching sessions.
