On the Faces of the World—Mark Burrows.
Beginning softly with a rainstick, a soloist or small
group, and simple background harmonies, this fun-
to-sing piece picks up the pace with a rhythmic,
nicely harmonized section accompanied by shakers,
hand drums, and djembe. A clever layered section
calling for "peace" in nine different languages
provides contrast and breadth. Wonderful!
