  Hi Elizabeth,
  Thanks for your inquiry. Sea Charm is one of my favorites of my father’s pieces. I actually have a postcard that Langston Hughes sent my father. I’m emailing you offline about the sheet music.

Frederick Piket (1903 – 1974)

American Composer of Secular and Jewish Liturgical Music
