Origi nal anthem This original anthem centers on four biblical texts, each presented in a unique musical style - creating a dramatic composition for choir with optional brass quintet. The juxtaposition between major and minor tonality offers even more interest to the harmonies. Choirs will enjoy the contrast between fast and slow sections, which contribute to the dynamic impact of this powerful composition.

UPC: 038081561967. English. Traditional Hebrew Folk Song.

An optional clarinet adds a festive flourish to this traditional Hebrew folk song arranged expressly for 3-part mixed singers. This specifically targeted voicing pays close attention to the most appropriate range and tessitura for developing voices, especially the guys. Four short lines comprise an entirely Hebrew text that celebrates the miracle of Hanukkah and the spinning dreidel (a pronunciation guide is included). S'vivon sov, sov, sov means Dreidel turn, turn, turn. Excitement abounds throughout, especially when a surprise slower section accelerates back to the first lively tempo, and then even faster for the final phrase.
