UPC: 038081531281. Swahili. Traditional Lesotho Lullaby.
A combination of the traditional Lesotho lullaby with some original words and music, this arrangement pairs a simple African text with English lyrics on the same topic. All parts sing in unison first, laying the groundwork for both two and three part canons which soon develop. Legato verses and a hushed bridge provide nice contrast to the form. Choreography is on Alfred's Movin' DVD.

Translating as “Hush” or “Quiet child, baby, little one,” this arrangement incorporates a South African folk song lullaby with additional original music using lyrics from another South African lullaby. The subtle percussion, included in the choral, is played lightly as the piece begins in unison, then a round, adding harmony and later a descant which provides a “heavenly” layer above the folk melody.
