ELEMENTARY CHORAL SELECTIONS
Shenandoah—arr. Andrew Parr. This exquisite
setting of the beloved American folk song has
been artistically arranged for mixed or treble choirs
of all ages. A beautiful piano accompaniment
brings an independent voice to the arrangement,
and the optional harmony part creates echoes,
canonic imitation, and moving harmonies for a
gorgeous effect. A valuable Learning Resource
Page is also included for extension exercises and
connections to the national standards.

Sing a Song of Peace (A partner song with
This Is My Country)—Jill Gallina. This gentle

It partners cleverly with the patriotic favorite This
Is My Country by Don Raye and Al Jacobs to
create a simple harmonic texture that is easy to
sing and inspiring to perform.

Sisi Ni Moja—Jacob Narverud. A celebratory,
highly rhythmic composition. The Swahili title
means "We are one" - meaning all human
beings have much in common. The energetic
djembe sets the tone, the piano adds its own
rhythmic design, and the singers dramatically
deliver the message.
10776380 SA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.20
Siyahamba—arr. Victor C. Johnson. A stellar
setting of the well-known South African folk
song for developing singers with logical part-
writing, stylistic rhythms, and an energized
accompaniment! The optional percussion parts
for shaker, small drum, and djembe will make it
even more fun to learn and perform.
11413703E Two-Part ePrint. . . . . . . . . ME 2.20
Smile—arr. Roger Emerson. Charlie Chaplin's
timeless classic is presented in an arrangement

an emphasis on phrasing and line. Students and
audiences alike will appreciate this song and its
uplifting message.

Solfege Sonata—Audrey Snyder. Have fun
practicing solfege with this lighthearted spoof of
Mozart's famous Piano Sonata No. 16. Excellent
as a concert closer or encore, this piece will make
your audience chuckle as they learn a little music
trivia about Mozart and melody - plus it's a lot of
fun for your accompanist!

Something Big—arr. Audrey Snyder.
"Something big, I feel it happening." Get the

and fun to perform.

This Is My Country—Al Jacobs & Don Raye/
arr. Cristi Cary Miller. This familiar patriotic song
from 1940 has a folky and nostalgic quality. The
flexible arrangement offers cued note options
in the three-part mixed version to expand the
harmony by adding basses. It's a great choice
for patriotic concerts or as a festival choir
closing selection.

Touch the Sky (from "Brave")—arr. Mac Huff.
You will almost see the heather on the hillside
with this vigorous song from the Disney/Pixar
animated film "Brave." The triadic vocals dance
over the exuberant Scottish accompaniment for
a joyful celebration of courage and honor!
10335659 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.15
The Turn Off Your Phone Song—Adam Podd
& Matt Podd (and Pachelbel). Skip the droll
opening announcement about cell phones and
sing this instead! Based on Pachelbel's Canon
- which, face it, everyone loves - this piece will
make a lovely concert opener that also serves
a valuable (and comedic) purpose. The original
lyrics can be adapted, as well as the timing and
audience involvement. It's easily learned and just
downright hilarious. Don't miss it!

Walk Through Life—Pinkzebra. Handclaps and
a punchy groove set the tone in this upbeat song
that works for concert or show choirs. Careful
attention to ranges and easy-to-sing harmonies
makes this a terrific choice for younger choirs,
too. Perform with the accompaniment MP3 or
instrumental parts for a live band, and help your
students rehearse with the part-dominant MP3
practice tracks, available in a multi-user bundle
to share with your whole choir.

We Don't Talk About Bruno (from "Encanto")
—Lin-Manuel Miranda/arr. Audrey Snyder.
From the animated movie "Encanto," Disney's

definitely going to want to sing about him in this
accessible arrangement designed especially for
younger or smaller choirs.

We'll Rise Above—Jeannine Lasky & Masa
Fukuda. "We'll rise above, seize the highest
dream. We'll lift our heads up high, move the
sky, embrace our destiny!" This song of hope
reaffirms the potential we all have to rise above
the negative and reach for something better.
A strong statement of unity and purpose,
perfect for graduation, moving-on ceremonies,
or final concerts!

The Wellerman—arr. Jacob Narverud. This 19th-
century folk song from New Zealand experienc-
ed new life as a viral hit on TikTok and
spawned the sea-shanty trend. The ballad tells
the story of the hopeful inhabitants of a whaling
village waiting for the Wellerman ship to bring
supplies. This rousing arrangement is great
fun and highly accessible as it can be performed
with either the piano accompaniment or
a cappella.

song will shine through with plenty of unison on
the melody and easy-to-teach harmonies. This is
a text that young people need to sing and hear:
"You are not alone!"
