In 2012, Jimmy Fallon started a recurring segment on “The Tonight Show” in which The Roots use classroom instruments to play pop songs with celebrity guests. These skilled musicians pull off engaging performances using instruments many people don't take seriously beyond the elementary music room. Nathan Howe has continued his musical genius in a cappella writing with this pop tune sung a cappella with classroom percussion. It's amazing and fun and suitable for all ages with the variety of voicings available. The choral also includes notes on different ways to teach, learn, and perform the piece and all the percussion parts are included as a free download.

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.
