Format : Vocal Score
Composer/educators Dave and Jean Perry have crafted the perfect work for teaching part singing to young choirs: One Single Light. Even when the voices sing in a roundlike counterpoint the easy accompaniment supports the singers. And the text is as fresh and clear as the singable melodies. This is quality no-nonsense choral writing for young singers-just what we've come to expect from the Perrys. For general or Christmas use.

A haunting, minor-mode melody is passed through the choir in this fugue treatment of an expressive psalm text. What begins as artful simplicity develops into lush polyphony. By the waters of Babylon, we sat down and wept.

A new carol for Yuletide! The merry melody, punctuated by festive Sing Noels is passed through the choir, giving each section a small feature before a celebratory chorus unites the group in harmony. A minor section provides contrast in the middle, and the sopranos place joyful ornaments on the final full-force refrain.

The buoyant compound meter of this jovial Christmas charmer is suggestive of Irish folk music. Tuneful melodies are paired with merry ding dong counterlines as this refreshing choral (with processional potential) unfolds. Download the optional tambourine part at alfred.com/choralparts.

Here's a bright wintertime feature in the spirit of an eastern European snow song. With lively syncopated entrances, tuneful melodies, and independent voice parts, it's just so easy to sing. And with no mention of the holidays, just as easy to program.

Take a little singing, and a little dancing, add a little 'le-lo-la,' like the happy yellow bird. This sprightly Spanish folk song is reminiscent of a singing canary, and is a delight to perform! Lighthearted lyrics in both English and Spanish (with pronunciation guide) are included, and suggestions for an optional Latin percussion ensemble lead the way to a lively tango.
