CGE680 Three French Songbirds (Two-part)

Description

Rentz and Byrnes expertly melds two beloved French folk songs- Dans la forêt lointaine and Y'a une pie- into a beautifully crafted and utterly charming arrangement for two-part choirs, where the choral voices gleefully imitate the merry, carefree songs of birds in full-throated celebration. A playful piano accompaniment dances through the piece with a delightful cuckoo-like character that adds wit and whimsy to every phrase, making this an absolute joy to both sing and hear. A French pronunciation guide is included, making Three French Songbirds an accessible and enriching multicultural addition to any concert program.
