CGA946 We, the Children, Lift Our Voices
Description
Initially released in William Moore's 'Columbian Harmony' in 1825, this pentatonic-based American folk tune has become a familiar and often heard melody. The vocal harmonies are both traditional and easy to learn. The contrapuntal opening of the final stanza and the abundance of unison singing will make this a well-received work with both choirs and congregations.
Voicing: Unison/Two-part with piano
Composer: William Moore
Arranger: Stan Pethel
Text: George Atkins
