From the soft beginning to the rollicking final climax, this arrangement of I Saw Three Ships should be sung with an excited intensity that gradually builds as the piece progresses. The choir’s tone should remain light and bouncy to mimic the playfulness of the dance-like melody found in the piano and optional flute parts. Feel free to play with the dynamic level of the held notes based on your choir’s ability level to add contrast and interest.
