LIke a singing bird

Picture
Composer — Bob Chilcott
Voicing + performing forces — 2 Part + piano
Call Number — 5071
Level — Easy/Medium 

The older group of the GPRC Oriana Girls’ Choir sang this piece last year.  It is so beautiful; consisting of two contrasting melodies and an additional descant in the final verse.  The melodies were very accessible to the choir and easy to learn.  The choir sings through both melodies in unison and then sings them contrapuntally, creating this rich harmonic structure.  The students also connected to the words which enabled them to sing with lots of emotion and expression.  I will definitely use this selection again in the future.
