Description
A fabulous, rollicking folksong of the sea-shanty kind, this arrangment starts with an introduction of The Volga Boatmen, and then plunges into a jaunty rhythm. Altos and tenors share the same line for much of the piece, and there are sections of male and female unison singing. Feel free to play around with the rhythms and the drunkenness!
(Please note, the live recording below the score is a version with guitar accompaniment.)
