Traditional Shaker tunes are cleverly interwoven in this arrangement that blends the familiar Simple Gifts with other lesser-known gems. The creative use of rounds, two-part harmony and the unique Shaker practice of 'wordless singing' make this setting ideally accessible for a wide range of choral groups. Also included is interesting information about Shaker traditions. As an educational tool that allows singers to experience the Shaker cultural tradition, this work embodies a timeless message.
