Manx Gaelic, as spoken on the Isle of Man, is similar to the Gaelic spoken in Ireland and Scotland. Many Manx folk songs make reference to birds, as this one does.

Niska Banja is a Serbian Gypsy dance popular throughout the Balkans. To Central Europeans, the 9/8 rhythm of 2-2-2-3 is as natural as a 4/4 rock beat is in North America, and rapidly becomes both infectious and quite natural. The 4-hand piano accompaniment adds even another dimension to this charming, compelling work. 10091375 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 1728708 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10093430 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10093431 TB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 1728708C Choral Master Track . . . . . . 4.99 lt Nordic Polskaarr.

This colorful work from the Philippines portrays the soundscape of the Cordilleras, a mountainous region in the northern part of the country. Opening with a peaceful chant, representing the rice fields at sunrise, the tranquility is soon interrupted by animal calls and festive shouts of children playing. Serenity finally returns at sunset. A showpiece for treble choirs! 10431456 Three-Part Treble Equal . . . . 1.90 H Ose Shalom (The One Who Makes Peace) John Leavitt.
