About this album

Roses In The Snow is one of Emmylou Harris’s most admired albums, a graceful turn towards bluegrass that highlights her command as an interpreter. Issued in 1980, the record finds her working with a largely acoustic sound and a cast of top-tier country and bluegrass players, giving traditional material a clarity and lift that made the album stand out in her catalogue. Her readings of songs such as Wayfaring Stranger, The Boxer and Darkest Hour Is Just Before Dawn show how deeply she could inhabit inherited material without losing her own signature poise. The album helped confirm Harris as a major bridge between country, folk and roots music.
