The chickens’ dilemma erupts in a barnyard flurry of clucking and squawking! Easy two-part. SA, piano.
SA, piano. Duration: 3’00”
(Lawrence (KS) Children’s Choir, Janeal Krehbiel conducting)
This was first performed by the Northfield (MN) Youth Choirs in 1990. The poem is an anonymous little ditty about some chickens that are looking for a bite to eat. The chorus parts are not difficult, and the piano part is fun as it scratches and clucks along. (The children get to squawk at the end, too!)
Uptempo, light and playful with a whimsical accompaniment. As children, even future kings have to play! This spiritual is arranged for unison with optional 2-part voices.
A “concerto of geckos” and other noises of the night come to life through syncopated rhythms and jazz harmonies underneath a lyrical melody. SA or SSA, piano, opt. Orff instruments, opt. percussion.
This gentle setting of Elinor Wylie’s poem takes a serene walk in newly fallen snow. Perfect for young voices or older treble choirs. Unison or SA (or unison with flute), piano.
