This Japanese lullaby is a traditional song sung by girls far away from home as they worked as nannies in upper class households. The gentle sounds of flute and wind chimes support the plaintive quality of the melody, presented in canon and simple harmonization over the arpeggios in the piano or optional marimba accompaniment. / 3 Parties Mixtes

Sung in unison, two, three, and eventually four-part round, this beautiful melody was penned by sixteenth century master of polyphony Thomas Tallis. An excellent teaching piece, the lyrical tune (set with an original winter text) sits so well in the voice. As a special touch, phrases from 'In the Bleak Midwinter? are artfully woven throughout. / Choeur SSA
