Arch Gwyn (Arranger). Par ARCH GWYN. These folksongs from the wild west have been arranged with the younger choir in mind. They are fun arrangements of popular folksongs that are interesting to sing and fairly straight-forward to perform. The optional baritone line makes the collection suitable for choirs with a dearth of male voices but equally suitable for boys to sing as their voices change and develop. / Niveau : Facile / Date parution : 1995-06-15/ Feuillet / Choeur
