UPC: 038081562964. English. Traditional Jamaican Folk Songs.
In the words of Jamaican musicologist Marjorie Whylie, Jamaican folk songs are full of social commentary, censure, and recrimination in a vehicle of humor. This publication includes three charming arrangements for a cappella singers and percussion. One describes a comical scene at a train station; a second playfully questions a neighbor about some missing food; and the third (complete with simple instructions to recreate a ringplay game) cheers a naughty cousin who threw his aunt's coat out the window. A printed guide and online video provide vetted learning tools for the Patois language. Unique, authentic, fun!

Songsmith Gordon Lightfoot's ballad expresses the longing to be with loved ones on a cold, snowy night. This artistic concert setting is a beautiful feature for your collaborative pianist with an elegant accompaniment that ebbs and flows beneath the light and airy melody. In the middle, this distinctive arrangement softens to a rubato a cappella section, garnering chills.
