4 Mango Walk!arr. Ken Berg. This cute Jamaican
folksong, in English, is basically a round, which may
be sung in unison or in three parts. With accessible
layered harmonies and delightful percussion and
keyboard accompaniment, it's irresistible!

n Manx Lullabyarr. Lori-Anne Dolloff. 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. Oh ho-ro hi ri ri... as sung by the chorus
imitates the sound of a dove. Complete with a bird-
like obbligato on optional C-instrument, this is a
uniquely charming selection for unison voices!

n Morning Song (Cherokee Amazing Grace)
arr. James Green. The familiar melody of Amazing
Grace holds great meaning to the Cherokee people.
In this wonderful choral setting, it is sung with
Cherokee words in combination with the Morning
Song of the Teehahnahmah Indian Nation to create
a compelling musical expression of the ideals and
desires of the Cherokee Nation. This simple canon
will be a very rewarding experience for treble choirs
in middle school through high school, especially
when performed with recorder, flute or low whistle,
shaker or tambourine, and drum (parts included).

pronunciation guide make it easy to achieve an
authentic performance. Highly recommended!

H
Niska Banjaarr. Nick Page. 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.

This colorful work from the Philippines portrays
the soundscape of the Cordilleras, a mountainous

n Oy Es Dia de Placer (Today Is the Day to
Rejoice and Sing)arr. Jody Noblett. This
Spanish dance tune is by Tomas Pascual, a Mayan
composer of the early seventeenth century. With
a simple message celebrating the joy of living, it
calls for accompaniment of maracas, bass drum,
log or slat drum, djembe and finger cymbals, all of
which create a festive, medieval sound. Singable
in Spanish or English, this will work well as a
processional or for madrigal festivals.
