UPC: 038081552330. English. Traditional Spiritual.
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.

UPC: 038081562117. 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.

UPC: 038081511665. English.
An easily-sung pentatonic melody, a text rich in imagery, and a supportive piano part make this soothing song an ideal selection for beginning choirs. The patterning of the optional bell, triangle, and hand drum parts make them easy to learn for young players: a great way to incorporate classroom and Orff instruments!
