UPC: 038081531427. English. Traditional English Round.
A festive setting of the English round that will come together quickly at that busy time of year! A rousing antiphonal treatment (a fanfare) leads into the traditional tune, followed by a newly composed bridge. Later, the unison melody becomes a 2-part, and eventually a 3-part round. A wonderful opener for holiday performances!

This darling little charmer reads like step-by-step instructions for assembling a jigsaw puzzle. Andy's writing provides the perfect lesson plan to teach part-singing: Part II sings an eight-bar melody, Part I sings their complementary eight bars, the two combine, we add some simple parallel harmony on the refrain, and voilà ! Teachers will thoroughly appreciate the easy-to-play piano part and compact vocal ranges (no one sings higher or lower than a D). In a surprise, not-so-hidden message, the lyrics explain that the pieces are scattered, not broken, and though they have come apart, when they fit back together, we'll have a wonderful work of art. It's a double metaphor about points of view, or voice parts, coming together.

This sincere goodbye song is especially well conceived for developing 2-part singers. The tuneful, memorable melody is so easy to learn, and harmonies are smartly achieved with independent counterlines or a comfortable distance between notes for those just learning to sing in parts. A delicate piano part provides consistent support throughout. In the sunshine, in the rain, you were always true. A perfect choice at the end of a year.

Find hope, shine hope, sing hope. This simple melody stacks beautifully into a 3-part canon by the end of the song, building the skills of developing part-singers. A quote from Emily Dickinson's treasured poem, Hope Is the Thing with Feathers, provides contrast in the middle of this tender and tuneful song. An excellent choice for any time of year.
