Description
This original song by Canadian songwriters Mark Murphy and Maureen Ennis, originally written for vocal trio and heard in various memorial occasions, has now been arranged by Dan Forrest, Jamie Hillman, and the composer for SATB choir as part of the Beckenhorst Concert Series. Highly effective for both high school choirs and community choirs, the gentle "songwriter" feel of the original is supported by a simple piano accompaniment and well-crafted choral lines. The result is a deeply-felt expression of grief and comfort: "I'll sing for you because I need to, right now this is all I know; I'll sing so we will not forget you, I will sing you home - I will sing you home." (Accompaniment Track includes one bar of piano introduction to set tempo and pitch, and piano plays during a cappella sections and long note values to keep tempo clear.)
