I Wonder As I Wander by John Jacob Niles arranged by Keith Christopher for SAB chorus with Piano accompaniment and optional Flute.This Christian folk hymn was inspired by a song heardby Niles at a fundraising meeting for evangelicals which he attended in Murphy North Carolina. Niles wrote of the moment he first heard the tune:'A girl had stepped out to the edge of the littleplatform attached to the automobile. She began to sing. Her clothes were unbelievable dirty and ragged and she too was unwashed. Her ash-blond hair hung down in long skeins.... But best of all she was beautiful and in heruntutored way she could sing. She smiled as she sang smiled rather sadly and sang only a single line of a song'.Niles requested that the girl repeat the fragment seven times paying her a quarter perperformance and left with 'three lines of verse a garbled fragment of melodic material—and a magnificent idea'. He completed his composition on October 4 1933 and I Wonder As I Wander was firstperformed on December 19 1933 at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown North Carolina.

The original version of this setting of the well-known traditional English folk song was completed in 1974, and was commissioned by Rachel McMillan College of Education (where Gregson was a lecturer at the time) for its Music Department choir (female voices). It then had the somewhat unusual instrumentation of spinet, flute and string quartet. In 2017 Gregson made a revision for performance and publication in a new version for upper voices and piano / Ssa Et Piano

What fun! The translation notes contain an apology for those who speak authentic Italian because this opera spoof is pure comedy! Nancy Grundahl has created a hilarious medley of some of the most famous arias of all time usingItalian musical vocabulary for text as well as some “original” Italian-ish words with a little English mixed in. “La Vocabulario di Musica” uses each opera snippet to demonstrate the meaning of the text.For example “Quando m'en vo” is con grazia (with grace) and con molto eleganza (with much elegance). The “Love Duet” from The Magic Flute demonstrates pizzicato. “Habanera” fromCarmen portrays espressivo apassionata mysterioso and ostinato to name a few. A fabulous learning tool this humorous compilation will bring the house down! For concert festival or just for fun!
