CoverIt Was a Lover and His Lass [level: Medium]
piano accomp.: Mary Ellen Loose - J. Edmund Hughes | Edith Copley Choral Series
voicing: SATB | catalog number: SBMP 1030 | duration: 4:00 | price: $2.25
accompaniment: piano

This piece can do well on its own merit, or it can be joined by two others in a unique Shakespeare Suite, each piece being for a different voicing. To perform all three, divide the SATB choir, the women getting their turn first with Sigh No More Ladies; next the men perform Take, O Take Those Lips Away; and finally all join in with It Was a Lover and His Lass. Clever writing abounds for both the voices and the piano. Add a bit of staging to make the performance extra special.
Errata in tenor part: Ms 37 and 78 the triplet text should be "ring a ding"
