About this arrangement

SAB choir and piano SKU: LO.15-3907H Composed by Douglas E. Wagner. Choral. Concert, General. Octavo. Heritage Music Press #15/3907H. Published by Heritage Music Press (LO.15-3907H). ISBN 9780787776206.Presenting the Ukranian Bell Carol melody in its original form as The Little Swallow (Shchedryk), the text of Leontovych’s work tells the fabled story of a lone swallow that flies down to homes, sending to all who live therein blessings, wealth, and abundant harvests in the coming year. The Ukrainian word ‘shchedryk’ refers to ‘the bountiful (giving) one.’ At just about two minutes in length, this is a perfect piece to focus on diction and breathing.
