Where Go The Boats

Setting a wonderful poem by Robert Louis Stevenson, this piece explores the tender and inquisitive nature of the youthful mind. As a child casts his miniature boat along the river, he wonders where it will end up, and where other children's boats go. The melody rings of a children's lullaby and the accompaniment flows along, like the river depicted in the poem. Perfect for any children's choir concert in the spring or autumn, this piece can also be useful for children just beginning their experiences with harmony. The second voice part builds on the traditional falling third and is very accessible.
