Description
This simple arrangement is one of a series of British folk songs for SAB (soprano/alto/bass) choir and piano.
This song is a traditional song of timber workers using the "donkey" engine.
There are many more verses but for the purpose of the medley I have restricted it to three verses, one for each part with harmonised chorus.
The sound sample is an electronic preview and uses wind instruments to represent the voices.
The zip file includes accompaniments in mp3 and midi format and two versions of the score - one small to save paper and one large for easier reading. It also includes a pdf of the piano part on its own.
