“Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening”

Randall Thompson’s “Frostiana” is a choral cycle based on the poems of Robert Frost. The cycle consists of settings for mixed chorus and piano, and it was premiered in 1959. “Frostiana” was commissioned to celebrate the bicentennial of the town of Amherst, Massachusetts, and it features seven of Frost’s poems set to music by Thompson.

“Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” is one of the poems included in the “Frostiana” cycle. The composition captures the reflective and contemplative mood of Frost’s poem, where the narrator pauses to admire the beauty of a snowy evening in a quiet forest. Randall Thompson’s musical setting adds another layer to Frost’s words, enhancing the emotional impact of the poem.

Thompson’s approach in “Frostiana” is characterized by its accessibility and tonal clarity. His settings aim to convey the meaning and atmosphere of Frost’s poetry through the expressive power of choral music. The entire “Frostiana” cycle is a celebration of both Thompson’s skill as a composer and Frost’s enduring contribution to American literature.

Sinterklaas Koffie

Nederland | Koninklijk Nederlands Normalisatie Instituut | NEN 1010 (IEC 60364)

An “gezelligheid” moment on the evening of December 5th (Sinterklaasavond). Adults gather after children go to bed with gifts (remember children?), enjoying strong coffee generously laced with genever or another jenever-like spirit, often spiced with cinnamon or anise. Sometimes topped with whipped cream, it warms the festive mood while singing traditional Sinterklaas songs and sharing stories of Sint and his Zwarte Pieten who arrive on a boat from Spain.

Sufganiyot in a Minute

Sufganiyot (plural), sufganiyah (singular); are a type of deep-fried doughnut that is traditionally eaten by Jewish people during Hanukkah, along with other fried foods, to commemorate the miracle of the oil in the Temple.  They are typically round and filled with jelly or other sweet fillings, and they are often dusted with powdered sugar. Sufganiyot are deep-fried until they are golden brown and have a light, fluffy texture.


The practice of eating fried foods during Hanukkah is a symbolic way of celebrating the miracle of the oil, where a small amount of oil miraculously lasted for eight days in the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem.
