• CPDL #26589:        (Sibelius 7)

Editor: Kitty Brazelton (submitted 2012-06-25).   Score information: Letter, 1 page, 37 kB   Copyright: Public Domain

Edition notes: The sopranos sing up to D above C above mid C and down to A below mid C: if too low, they can speak or whisper. They are soon reinforced. The altos may sing up to the same D or drop the 2nd phrase down, as needed. I've marked it to choose. The male voices are neither tenor nor bass, but baritone. Please transpose the score if you need to.
