L Nine Hundred Miles—arr. Greg Gilpin. The crisp,
rhythmic energy which mimics a train underlies the
dynamic modal groove in this American folk song
arrangement for mixed or tenor-bass voices. The
creative use of independent vocal ostinato patterns
in the lower parts gives significant vocal interest
for each part. Performance options are included to
employ a soloist at the beginning, and for singers to
clap a light eighth note pattern in certain sections to
mimic the click-clacking sound of the train. Exciting!

ROUNDS PLUS
Traditional Rounds
with Ostinatos for
Changing Voices
arr. Roger Emerson.
Rounds are a wonderful way
to introduce harmony to young
singers! However, traditional
rounds often have too wide a
range for changing voices, so this
collection was created with the
male changing voice in mind. Fun
and easy-to-sing ostinatos for the
changing male voice accompany
ten familiar rounds sung by treble
voices. Additionally, each round
is presented with two key options
to accommodate the cambiata,
mid-voice and new baritone
range comfortably. Experiment
with other keys until you find your
choirs' sweet spot vocally. This
experimentation will give you a
good idea of the range and tessitura
that will be effective for your group,
which you can then apply to your
choral literature selection process.
This reproducible collection of
unaccompanied rounds may be
taught entirely by ear or duplicated
for sight-reading purposes. Titles
include: Dona Nobis Pacem; Down
by the Bay; Heigh Ho, Nobody's
Home; Jubilate Deo; London's
Burning; Music Alone Shall Live
and more.
