Choral (SATB)
SKU: HL.48024079
Composed by Aaron Copland. Arranged by David Conte. BH Secular Choral. Concert, Festival. Octavo. 16 pages. Boosey & Hawkes #M051484492. Published by Boosey & Hawkes (HL.48024079).UPC: 888680686482. 6.75x10.5x0.036 inches. Copland/arranged Conte.
This arrangement is an almost literal, note-for note adaptation of Aaron Copland's variations on the Shaker tune “Simple Gifts” as it appears in his orchestral suite “Appalachian Spring” (rehearsal numbers 55-67). The Variations have been arranged for SATB chorus and piano in a wonderfully singable and exciting setting. A perfect way to introduce your choir to Copland while your audiences enjoy this wonderful music.
