Sing in Parts, Volume 2 contains ten more easy-to-read but slightly more challenging folk song arrangements for two- and three-part treble voices with piano accompaniment—perfect as concert pieces for elementary and middle school choirs or for sight-reading practice in the general music classroom.

Each arrangement includes reproducible sheet music, full performance recordings, piano-only accompaniment practice tracks, and rehearsal notes. The songs also coordinate seamlessly with the rhythmic and melodic skills taught in John M. Feierabend’s Conversational Solfege Level 3 curriculum but work equally well as standalone collections.

Come read and sing in parts with these delightfully original arrangements!

Repertoire:

  1. One Elephant
  2. Lavender's Blue
  3. Long, Long Ago
  4. Haul Away Joe / The Tailor and the Mouse
  5. Early One Morning
  6. Way Up High
  7. Hi-Di-Ho / Higgledy Pig!
  8. A Branch of May
  9. Waltzing Matilda
  10. Yankee Doodle's Noodles
