Description
This version of the traditional folk song "Green grow the rushes oh" has been arranged for various combinations of voices -
mens' voices - in G (Alto Tenor Baritone),
mixed voices - in B (Alto Mezzo Tenor) (the original version which you can hear sung by the composer in the sound sample)
and women's voices - in D (Soprano Mezzo-Soprano Alto)
The zip file contains the various scores and also midi files for practice purposes for each voice in each key
The traditional count-down from one to twelve is interrrupted midway when the top voice declares "let's not make them listen to the lot" but the chorus includes all twelve symbols anyway.
