M 3.35 Three Aesop Fables—Christopher Alexander. Greek storyteller Aesop is known for teaching moral lessons through fables that feature animals with human traits.

Perform individually or as a five-minute set with singers of any age with the three voicings offered. 11677149 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . .ME 2.60 11677150 SAB . . . . . . . . . . . . .ME 2.60 11677151 Two-Part . . . . . . . . .ME 2.60 Three for TB—Victor C.

The line between time's reality and its invention is blurry. This modern concert work borrows heavily on contemporary a cappella harmonies and techniques to create an engaging texture that highlights the fleeting nature of time.
