Description
This arrangement of the Ballad of Green Broom is provided here in a version for SSA women's voices (C major), and 2 versions for TBarB men's voices (B major and D major).
I have suggested "Choral", but it could work just with soloists.
The sound sample is an electronic preview.
The original folk song is an anonymous old traditional tune with anonymous words.
I have also arranged it for voice and guitar (available on this site) and for saxophone quartet and for clarinet quartet (available as part of my "Folksong Wedding" quartets at Musik Fabrik)
