Product Details

Product Description

This traditional West African folk song (lullaby or processional) is highly versatile. Most likely from Liberia in the Yoruba language, it could be used simply as a melody, as a 2-4 part round, as a simple 2-4 part warm-up exercise, or in multiple parts as a concert piece utilising SATB choir and soloists, or splitting choral voices into multiple parts. The arrangement includes performance suggestions, plus instructions for body percussion or added ad lib African percussion. Arranger KATHLEEN MCGUIRE has incorporated ideas from various traditional sources into one page for ease of learning.

It is suitable for any ages or abilities. The words translate loosely in English to: "We are sorry, I am sorry. What's up? What are you dreaming? Come to us."
