Wilhousky. The Wilhousky setting of this 19th
century hymn is possibly the most heartfelt

sweeping dynamic contrasts. Emotional and
highly effective, it is a truly magnificent setting
that may be performed with band or orchestral
accompaniment. It's also the one chosen most
often by U.S. military ensembles.

Bonse Aba—arr. Victor C. Johnson. Sizzling with
celebratory rhythmic energy, this African folksong
loosely translates as: "Those who sing have
the right to be called the children of God." The
only accompanying instruments are hand drum
(treble drum), djembe (bass drum), and shaker,
which add authentic flavor and opportunities for
improvisation. The vocal parts are easily learned
due their repetition and call-and-response style.
Highly recommended!

arr. Andrew Fischer. Here is an exuberant a
cappella number that's loaded with African
atmosphere! The traditional Zambian words are
sung throughout, with such a buoyant rhythmic
feel that you are transported into the center of a

definitely want to improvise some celebratory
whoops and shouts! Highly recommended!
