Review:
Mitchell Eithun's marvelous setting of this simple folk hymn uses a variety of techniques, as well as changes in tempo and dynamics, to create a lively arrangement that is as fun to hear as it is to play. Optional rhythm instruments (congas, claves, maracas, shakers; included in the Full Score) add to the fun and to the performance. Although only graded 1+, beginning and intermediate groups of all types are sure to love this one. 120 measures in the key of C Major.
