About this arrangement

SA children's choir, piano - medium-easy SKU: SF.SEA-001-02 Upbeat reflections on a Chinese dragon's many feet, with a "partner song" finale. Composed by Elizabeth Alexander. Secular, Chinese New Year. Choral Score. Duration 2 minutes. Published by Seafarer Press (SF.SEA-001-02). Text by: Elizabeth Alexander.The clever lyrics of this upbeat song describe a Chinese dragon with many different feet, a wholehearted affirmation of diversity within a community.Technical notes: Predominantly sung in unison, with a syncopated "partner song" finale. The verse of this song is "swung," and the chorus is "straight." A bass player and drummer may be added in performance, if desired.Composer's note: I put this song under "Children's Choirs," because it's children who most often sing it, but adults enjoy it, too! (It was originally composed for a whole congregation to sing while a Chinese dragon danced up and down the aisles.) Its engaging jazz harmonies, colorful piano accompaniment, and easy-to-learn countermelody make it a memorable selection for both singers and audiences.Top Honors: Waging Peace through Singing ProjectThemes: Dance, Diversity.
