Composed by Mark Weston. Choral. General. Octavo. Heritage Music Press #15/3776H. Published by Heritage Music Press (LO.15-3776H).ISBN 9780787770259.
Mark Weston created an easy-to-learn arrangement of a popular folk song from the West African coast that depicts a caring relative or friend consoling a young child who misses her family. The voices sing the melody in unison before splitting and singing it again as a round. Simple harmony and gentle counterpoint bring the work to a satisfying end. An explanation of the song, a pronunciation guide, and percussion notes for the optional parts are included.
