Quick Summary
This is a traditional Canadian Iroquois lullaby that has been arranged by Greg Gilpin. The song combines Native American-inspired melodies with soothing lyrics to create a gentle and calming atmosphere. It contains sections of unison, harmony created by some imitation between parts and by a separate melodic phrases. A key change in the last section brings with it a short simple descant above the other parts. Repetitive lyrics are in Iroquois and English. Accompaniment is included on the choral score for piano, shaker, hand drum and recorder, and is also available as free download.
