Description:
The original title of this charming folk song is The Two Little Sisters, and it contains a chant-like phrase "sing hi down." This particular lyric is sung with great energy as it carries much of the joy that prevails throughout the song. After a majestic introduction, the piece begins in earnest at a brisk tempo with the melody combined with a lively off-beat accompaniment. Arpeggios emphasize the "sing hi down" portion of the theme and are followed by a brief dance-like interlude that leads to the close, capturing the essence of this joyful tune.
