Thoughtfully crafted to make your 2-part singers sound their best, this Andy Beck arrangement reads like a solid choral lesson plan, with built-in teaching tools. The lyrical tune is sung first in unison, then in canon, a gentle call and response bridge introduces a new key, eventually some parallel harmonies arrive, and an optional middle note at the end offers one three-part chord. Adapted lyrics honor the bond of friend to friend.

Joyful syncopations propel us forward in this educational concert or contest selection. Contemporary yet logical sonorities come to life for developing choirs building their skills within limited vocal ranges. Notice how the marcato beginning and end contrast with a B section that is a touch more legato. Though sung entirely in Latin, there are only two sentences of text and a pronunciation guide is included. Perfectly crafted for intermediate groups, with the precisely vocal ranges you're seeking!
