The Rain Song
by Mark Growden
for The Calling All Choir
Note: the whole map of our arrangement is not represented here. OUR MAP IS:
Altos, Tenor, Soprano, Bass, in that order
Then ADD SIMPLE STOMP-CLAPPING (keep singing!)
Then SINGING OUT, KEEP CLAPPING (which is not in this recording)
Bass, Soprano, Tenor, Alto back in, in that order (which is not in this recording)
Then PERCUSSION BREAK (Body Rhythm! No singing but COUNT WITH ME 1… 2… 3… 4… 5 — )
ALL SING TOGETHER and STOMP-CLAPPING through the end
Your harmonies for the end are on the teaching tracks! Sink to the floor, in a position you can hold comfortably for a moment, on your last note.
Enjoy!
