Song Has a Bird for Rhythm [level: Medium]
Giselle Wyers
voicing: SATB | catalog number: SBMP 1746 | duration: c. 2’52
| price: $2.70
accompaniment: piano, opt. strings (Double Bass, Viola, Violin 1&2, Violoncello)
Rhythmic and joyful! A great new concert, contest, or festival piece for mixed concert choirs with piano accompaniment. The text is a call to action for all humankind to embrace that which is best and most noble in society. The poet describes birds as spiritual creatures that fly and reside near the boundary between physical and heavenly worlds, while the composer paints the poetry symbolically in the music to portray humankind striving for freedom, as the birds continue to “carry storylines” through generations into the best future possible…“Is not the future in song?” A unique and thought-provoking work!

voicing: TTBB | catalog number: SBMP 182 | price: $2.15
accompaniment: a cappella
Vance Wolverton: The last thing I expected to find in Estonia was Barbershop-style singing, but that is exactly what "Sulle Mulle" is. The infectious dotted rhythm of the soprano melody is underlaid by an equally infectious rhythmic ostinato in the alto parts. "Sulle Mulle" should be sung with great gusto and highly exaggerated pronunciation for optimal effect. Sing it in the original language, or use the excellent English version.
