Few pieces are as simple and straightforward as this, while still providing an array of choices for how it can be performed. Written with 3 sung lines (mixed or equal voices) that are repeated, the effect can be quiet and intimate or strong and determined—or a combination! Performance suggestions are in the printed music, but listening to the recording (Walk in Peace, CD-908) will spark your imagination with even more possibilities. C Instrument part is only for Upon This Path Guitar chords only appear for Upon This Path.

Alternating 3/4 and 6/8 time signatures are a fresh and fabulous twist for this holiday classic. You (and your audience) will be both surprised and delighted!

A bluesy rhythmic motive stacks up across voices, creating a compelling introduction and scattered interludes for this hip interpretation of the African-American spiritual. Call-and-response verses give individual sections a chance to shine, and a brief descant plus some optional divisi add that final flourish. A great teaching piece for 2- and 3-part choirs.

Originally part of his longer work Cantiones Sacrae, the canon on the famous text from Ecclesiastes (Vanity, vanity, all is vanity) was published by Dutch composer Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck in 1619. This arrangement features three equal voices and may be performed with or without the supportive piano accompaniment.

UPC: 038081562100. English. West Indies Folk Song.
A great fit for choirs of any age or ability! Harry Belafonte sang this joyful West Indies song on his 1956 album Calypso. Dr. Robinson's arrangement has just the right amount of repetition versus development, and will come together quickly with intuitive voice leading and some stylistic syncopation. One a cappella refrain just after the key change features the conga to keep the groove going, and a final descant adds a rhythmic counterline above. Build up the Jamaican vibe with our light SoundTrax accompaniment or the notated percussion part (available free online). The theme: build your house on solid ground.
