Lyricist: Maggie Furtak
Number of voices: 4vv Voicing: SATB

Description: Easy notes and rhythms. Comfortable ranges throughout. Homophonic. An adult choir should be able to put this together quickly, particularly because it is so short. It should be manageable for a solid high school group as well, and could probably be memorized pretty easily. Apologies for the midi sound quality. You may need headphones to get the lower notes to come through properly.
