Choral Choir (TTBB) - Digital Download SKU: A0.1124091 By Emily Crocker. By Traditional Sea Shanty. Arranged by Emily Crocker. Folk. Octavo. 10 pages. Emily Holt Crocker #724852. Published by Emily Holt Crocker (A0.1124091). A traditional sea shanty from the 1850s celebrates events from the 19th century Mexican-American War in which the Mexican troops were led by Antonio López de Santa Anna and the American army was led by Zachary Taylor. The song has been recorded many times, famously by the folk groups The Weavers and The Kingston Trio. The fiery minor key setting will be a showstopper for low voice choirs in high school and up.
