Akunyoka

Based on the Zulu proverb translated as "There is no snake that forgets its home," this original canon reminds us that there is no place like home. Perform this piece in unison or with up to four parts, a cappella, or with the optional piano accompaniment. You won't want to miss the choreography, too!

Belonging to a series of canons inspired by a poem titled Mother Earth and Father Time, each piece is complemented with choreography designed by Panda van Proosdij to improve the sound and feeling of singing. The conductor's packet includes an introduction to the piece, a reproducible song sheet, a piano score, and directions for choreography and performance. You also get access to a media app that includes a digital song sheet, a digital piano score, and three videos: a tutorial for singers with both music and dance, instructions for the conductor, and a recording of the full performance.
