Taken from the oratorio “Christ on the Mount of Olives”, this octavo is sure to be a great contest hit for your young tenors and basses. The original German text is given as well as a singable English translation. The music is very picturesque and has the sense of a march. Don't miss this opportunity to share this excellent repertoire with your singers.
Sizzling with celebratory rhythmic energy, this African folk song loosely translates: “Those that sing have the right to be called the children of God.” The only accompanying instruments are hand drum (treble drum), djembe (bass drum), and shaker, which add authentic flavor and opportunities for improvisation. The vocal parts are easily learned due to their repetition and call-and-response style.
