Stephen Foster: Nelly Bly: SATB: Vocal Score

The audience will love being teased with tune fragments from seven popular Stephen Foster songs. Nelly Bly gives high school college and community choirs a chance to play name that tune with the listener. A fun sound gag at theend is a mistaken Grieg fragment. Lots of fun for a concert or festival!

A choice selection of Foster's most famous and enduring songs arranged specifically for the uke but suitable for all chord instruments. Songs include: Oh! Susanna ? Beautiful Dreamer ? Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair ? Camptown Races ? Massa's in the Cold Ground ? Ring the Banjo ? Nelly Bly ? and more. Melodies are presented in standard notation and tab with large easy-to-read chord diagrams and symbols and a CD for song reference and accompaniment.

Jack Halloran's arrangements are choral gems. Dick Bolks is a master at taking these challenging divisi a cappella choir settings and crafting them for a standard 4-part SATB mixed choir with piano accompaniment. As he did withthe Halloran standard “Witness” Mr. Bolks never loses the original flavor of the work while giving a classic to an entire new set of singers. Available for SSAATTBB a cappella and SATB. Rehearsal CD and RehearsalCD 10-Pak also available.
