This beautiful melodic work is an excellent teaching tool and will really showcase the musicality of young choirs!

Type of ensemble:  This piece is written for SA with an optional third part. It features easy to understand harmonies and voice leading. It is ideal for young voices in that the voice leading smooth and vocal ranges are quite moderate.

Story line:  This piece uses standard Latin text which is  simple and repetitive throughout.

Technique teaching points: The use of unison, homophonic harmony and occasional counterpoint allows for work on balance, blend independent part singing. The piano accompaniment is supportive, interesting and not difficult.

Program placement: This selection could be placed just before your last piece in your program. It’s quite delicate and sweet and would set up your last big finale.
