Synopsis

Howard Goodall is one of British TV's finest musical assets. This is an arrangement of Psalm 23 (the theme-tune from the award-winning BBC TV series The Vicar of Dibley) and Theme-Academy - a show-stopping medley of the classic theme tunes from Mr Bean, Red Dwarf and Blackadder.

If you are looking for straightforward and rewarding repertoire for your beginner choir, then you need look no further than Choral Basics the perfect series for singers of all ages. The Simple 3-part choral arrangements for soprano, alto and a combined part for mens voices make the series perfect for choirs with a dearth of males or whose male singers have unstable or changing voices. The rich array of repertoire is bound to be a hit with younger singers and the technical abilities of choirs at this level have been taken into consideration. Straightforward and idiomatic piano accompaniments have been included and are designed to support the vocal lines, without putting pressure on staff with less developed keyboard skills.
