This simple yet elegant setting is sung on just two short Latin phrases. A partner song approach gives each voice part independence, while a brief B section includes some homophonic choral harmonies. Halfway through the piece, a delicate descant-like third part is introduced, which floats gently above when the lyrical theme and counter theme return. Excellent concert or contest repertoire for developing groups.

I'm not givin' up . . . no, not yet. This lead single from Andy Grammer's album Naive is featured in the movie Five Feet Apart and gained YouTube fame among choir directors after Grammer's personal visit to PS22 in New York City. The lyrics speak of the power of friendship, the strength to fight, and the importance of support during difficult times. The catchy, syncopated chorus (with optional handclaps) makes great use of stacked harmony. Use the SoundTrax CD, or add guitar, bass, and drums to build your own band!

The twelve-bar blues form is remarkably easy to learn, so you'll have plenty of time to dive into the notated choreography, add some themed costumes, or decorate the stage with colorful props. Not sure who's gonna love it more, the kids or the parents! Hahahaha, wipe out!
