Subject: Re: [MK8] Easy 2 part Songs for very small choir

Definitely rounds!
My middle school kiddos enjoyed Ghost of John this time of year. I can get
anything by them in a minor key! LOLOLOL!
The Dynamite round (check You Tube) was a hit. My husband did it with his
high school students.

I'm sitting out this year due to health issues and it has been awhile since
I did actual chorus. Let me think some more.
Yonder Come Day was fairly easy and sounded great. The MK8 arrangement.
They have lots of 3 part mixed that can be adjusted to two parts.
Christmas in about 3 Minutes is a fabulous octavo my students loved.
Basically a huge partner song with 23 (I think) little clips of Christmas
songs.
I second Martha on Shalom, that was on my list for this year before I found
out I couldn't be there.
Once Upon a December isn't Christmas, it is from Anastasia but GORGEOUS.
