Sylvia Miles #4890417. Published by Sylvia Miles (A0.977674). In Provençal, La Marcho di Rei.This is a carol of Provençal origin, celebrating the Epiphany. The words are attributed to Joseph-François Domergue, 1691-1729, the cure of Aramon.The text was published for the first time in the Recueil de Cantiques Spirituels Provençaux et François, 1749. The origin of the melody is unknown, but it seems to have been current in the C17. It was an established custom at that time to set new words to well-known tunes. Bizet found the tune in a book published in 1864, and pinched it for his L'Arlésienne, 1872.The basses (and tenors) get to sing like drums!

Choral Choir (2-Part) - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1112712 Composed by Spanish Carol. Arranged by Curtis Hanson. Christmas,Folk,Holiday,Sacred. Octavo. 5 pages. Curtis Hanson #714725. Published by Curtis Hanson (A0.1112712). In this post-pandemic era, demand for octavos for smaller choirs is on the rise. A La Nanita Nana is a lovely Spanish carol probably most well known in the arrangement by Norman Luboff. In this setting for 2 part mixed voices, the baritone line is a hybrid of bass/tenor ranges making it very accessible to a young choir with limited male voices. The treble part sits a little more in the soprano range and requires use of the head register. The only major challenge to the piece is to differentiate between the major and minor keys. Text is given in both Spanish and English allowing for multiple ways to interpret. It would be a welcome addition to any holiday program. It is also available for expanded choral voicing. This would be a welcome addition to the library with minimal voices. It would also work well as a duet.

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1253829 Composed by Giacomo Puccini. Arranged by Scott S. Stewart. 19th Century,A Cappella,Classical,Instructional,Opera. Octavo. 4 pages. Scott S. Stewart #847459. Published by Scott S. Stewart (A0.1253829). “Quando me’n vo’�, or Musetta’s Waltz from Puccini’s masterpiece, La Bohème (1896) is probably one of the most recognizable operatic melodies ever written.  It is sung by Musetta at the Café Momus, who is hoping to get the attention of her occasional boyfriend Marcello.  The tune is masterfully reprised later by the entire cast.  This arrangement of the waltz is for 4-part SATB ensemble to be performed a cappella. This pièce de résistance was arranged thus to make ‘Opera’ accessible to wider audiences for various reasons (instructive, educational purposes; and performance familiarity to/for a larger population).  The original melody and harmonies are used.  It retains the original Italian text, making this arrangement an excellent tool for introducing ‘Opera’ music in the classroom, and programming diversity in the concert hall.  Performance time: 1:45+-.
