Lone Wild Bird

Each of the arrangements in this set was written for the American Children of SCORE, a children's ensemble based in Virginia. SCORE is an acronym for String, Choral, Orff, and Recorder Ensemble. All of the pieces are geared toward children in the upper elementary to middle school years. Each arrangement calls for all of the children to sing chorally, some in unison, some in two-part harmony. In addition, there are accompaniments and instrumental sections in which the children of the ensemble play either Orff instruments, soprano or alto recorders, or string parts. The pieces have been well tested! All the ensembles include a conductor score, a vocal/piano score, a reproducible children's vocal part, a string score, 4 of each string part, and 12 recorder parts. The instrumentation varies slightly by title. The conductor scores are also available separately.
