Joshuaarr. Joseph Martin. Take your children's
choir and their parents on a fun (and a little whacky)
ride through the story of Joshua with this delightful
arrangement of the traditional spiritual! The Bible
story does indeed come shining through but not
before the choir pauses along the way to offer
their own commentary on camel caravans, giants,
funeral dirges, and even their reluctance to "tattle"
while singing about the battle. Pseudo-dramatic at
times, and at others a little jazzy, this is one your
ensemble will enjoy from the first rehearsal to the
final presentation.

Joshua Fit the Battle of JerichoRuth Elaine
Schram. This accessible arrangement of the
familiar African American spiritual makes an ideal
selection for older children's choirs as well as youth
or adult choirs. A well-crafted accompaniment
nicely supports the vocals while also painting
a picture of Jericho's tumbling walls using
descending chromatic patterns heard during the
song's introduction and interludes.

arrangement is a real find for mixed or treble choirs!

Symphony" in partner-song format, this is easy
to perform with a minimum of rehearsal. And it's
remarkable how well the two melodies fit together!
Very nice!
