    Solid Folk SATB for Ensemble Work

    This 4-Part SATB arrangement of 'The Turtle Dove' is a solid choice for various gigs, from community concerts to church services. While explicit chord symbols aren't present (typical for a choral octavo), the harmonic structure is clear. The 8-page format means manageable page turns. A reliable, well-crafted folksong setting.
