Notes
Programme NoteThe song may be considered appropriate within a community music therapy context.... The song is scored for voices, piano, contra bass bar (metal or wooden), three hand chimes (or chime bars), a drum, suspended cymbal and a glockenspiel. The vocal line is quite demanding and requires the voices to be arranged in two parts. By incorporating a large group of people the challenges of the piece can be shared so that those who are singing do not have to simultaneously play.
