I got hooked listening to this because of a 2002 Shanghai Quartet CD I have. Definitely sounds like leaves whirling in a bracing November wind, or the farmhands rushing to get the last of the fruit indoors before the frost.

All the leaves changing colour and the "crisp fall weather" nonesense is lost on me. After living in Canada for almost 42 years that is.
I know, I know .... MOVE TO A WARMER COUNTRY!!!
I get that a lot!

FK, when you live in a place where it's over 90F/32C every day from May to September, "crisp fall weather" when it finally comes at the end of October is a wonderful thing!

I bet.
Now imagine the horror you would feel after about a month of that "wonderful crisp fall weather" and it gets even colder, and THEN you wake up one morning to discover you're buried in 5 feet of snow ... unable to open your front door, and even if you did the roads aren't plowed yet so you ain't goin' anywhere anytime soon. Time to get out the old shovel! Hope you're in shape, maybe do some stretches before you head out for that hour - hour and a half of back-breaking snow shovelling. Gee, maybe I SHOULD have invested in that snow blower that went on clearance at the end of last winter!
Not such a wonderful thing at this point. I'm just sayin' ...
But I'm not bitter.

That's it ... I'm taking all the snow that falls on my property this year and dumping it on your driveway!
