For SSA Voices and Descant with Piano and Opt. Tambourine
By Meredith Tompkins
With a variety of musical elements reminiscent of Eastern European and Middle Eastern folk songs, this arrangement aptly utilizes the cultural background of biblical poetry in this dance-like setting for the emerging treble chorus. Mood shifts in the piano part, chorus, and text make this an excellent piece for experimenting with a variety of timbres, vocal colors, and expression - highly suitable for year-round programming needs.
