Product Description
Immerse yourself in the touching narrative of Cinderella, the acclaimed song by Steven Curtis Chapman, with this meticulously crafted lead sheet arrangement. Designed to convey a wealth of information in a compact format, this digital sheet music is perfect for musicians seeking to perform this piece with authenticity and emotional depth.
The song "Cinderella" was born from an evening when Chapman hurried to tuck his two youngest daughters into bed. It dawned on him that he was missing out on precious moments with them, just as he had with his eldest daughter due to his career demands. The song is a poignant reminder to treasure every moment with our loved ones because life can take unexpected turns.
In May 2008, the song gained an even deeper significance for the Chapman family after the tragic loss of his youngest daughter, Maria Sue. What began as a heartfelt message to appreciate the fleeting nature of parenthood became a profound reflection on life's fragility and the abruptness with which it can alter.
