Choral TTB chorus

SKU: ES.S-411

Arranged by Clayton Parr. Secular. Octavo. With Text language: Georgian (Republic of Georgia). Earthsongs #S-411. Published by Earthsongs (ES.S-411).

Chela is an ox-cart driver's song from Samegrelo, in the western part of Georgia near the Black Sea. While the song is sung to the oxen, the sorrow of exhaustion and hard work should be understood to include human emotion as well so that the attitude of the song is really a lament.

The solo lines can be sung exactly as is, or used as a basis for variation.
