Description:
Here is something truly different - Brent Wells' new arrangement of the Chinese folk song Ao bao Xiang Hui, "Let Us Meet at the Aoboa." The arrangement begins with a brief choral introduction, where the Erhu (violin) presents the melody of the folk song, complete with traditional ornamentation. The tenor and bass verse recounts the story of a young man who goes to the aobao, only to find that his true love is not there. The sopranos and altos answer, giving voice to her reassuring words: "If you wait patiently, I will run to your side." Finally, they find one another - and under the clear moonlit sky, sing together. Your singers will enjoy the challenge of a different language, presented in the setting of a charming love story. High school, college, and festival choirs will savor learning and performing this unusual piece.
