REPERTOIRE

Let's Make Music - Natalie Sleeth - 3 part - Hinshaw Music HMC 409

The 3 parts in the final chorus result from layering the separate verses. Thus, teachers should teach all singers all three unison verses. The should also have their students practice layering 2 or 3 verses so they become accustomed to this, but they should not assign students to avers for the final chorus; we will do that at rehearsal based on where children are seated.

To be done in German. For divisi parts as in meas. 17, please sing the higher pitch.
