A fantastic piece to teach vowels, diction, rhythms, and pitch precision, this English folk song, titled Leatherwing Bat, is fun to sing and impressive to perform. The nonsense syllables represent birds and bats chatting to one another in a rhythmic, witty fashion that your students will love to sing. Also available for Three-Part Mixed Voices (CM9595), Two-Part Treble Voices (BL1102), and SATB Voices (BL1153).
Leatherwing Bat is the original name of this traditional folk song. Folklore has always thought of the animals with human characteristics, including the power of speech. Even Mark Twain once commented that there was no question about the ability of animals to talk to each other. The question was whether or not very many people could understand them. This folk song is about the bat and birds chatting to each other about love. Phonetic pronunciation suggestion: Hahee-dih-dahoo, dee-dih-dul-uhm-dehee Heh-lee-lee, lih-lahee-lih-loh.

How fun! A unique setting of words adapted from a familiar English folk song. Handclaps, leg taps, and brushing palms decorate each voice part from the first statement of their independent line to the final layered recap. A departure from the traditional tune and tempo, Ruth's jaunty melody and andante interpretation creates a feeling of motion in triple meter.

A solo voice opens this moving anthem of individuality that doubles as a celebration of music. When all the voices join, singers echo warm phrases from part to part and build to an important realization at the bridge: If we all sing together, our songs will become like a symphony. You'll feel a firm tug of the heartstrings as the fully harmonized final verse builds to an impressive cadence and a momentous fermata. An awesome opener or closer in any voicing, and one you won't soon forget.
