Description
SA children's choir, soprano/tenor soloist, piano - easy
SKU: SF.SEA-018-01
Composed by African-American Spiritual. Arranged by Elizabeth Alexander. Choral score. Duration 3 minutes. Published by Seafarer Press (SF.SEA-018-01).Text: African-American Spiritual.
This clever arrangement of "Children, Go Where I Send Thee" is presented as a dialogue between an adult soloist and children's choir. A colorful accompaniment, delightful piano interludes, a little thigh-slapping, and a brief foray into musical punsmanship make for a Christmas treat.
This song can easily be taught to a young choir in 1 or 2 rehearsals, with the more experienced singers taking the upper of the two parts. The adult soloist opens each new verse with a call-and-response dialogue with the children's choir. The piano accompaniment is on an intermediate level.
