Michael, Row the Boat Ashore is an African-American Spiritual, written by slaves when they were fighting for and winning their freedom from slavery during the American Civil War.

This song has been written here three times, each with the same melody, but each using notes from a different scale. Musicians refer to songs using different scales as being in different keys. First, the song is written using notes from the C Major Scale. Second, the song is written using notes from the D Major Scale. Third, the song is written using notes from the E Major Scale. When we write the same song using notes from different scales, or in different keys, we call that transposing the music. When a song transitions from one key to another key, we call that a key change, or a modulation.

Includes lyrics and solfege syllables. Written using letter names, perfect for students who are learning to navigate the piano keyboard prior to reading standard music notation.

This arrangement was written to illustrate the simple elegance of this Christmas carol. It is an accessible piece for an average SATB choir, gradually increasing from unison to 4-part harmony. The piano accompaniment has tasteful harmonies, but is still fairly simple. My favorite part of the piece is actually the coda, which came first in the writing process. To me it reflects the true spirit of the Christmas season, and I know it will instill in the singer and audience the same feeling.

Once in a While is a popular song, written by Michael Edwards with lyrics by Bud Green. The song was published in 1937 and has become a much-recorded standard.This version features a root-based chord blocking that John and I have used in a number of our arrangements. We also added some pretty cool left-hand fills for your listening (playing?) pleasure - we hope you like what we've done to make this beautiful ballad something special!
