Philip Lawson : The Keel Row

Originating as a traditional Tyne River Shanty for the transport of coal, this sturdy tune will fit well in a program of folk music, with a steady rowing motion in the vocal accompaniment and a dancelike melody that passes among the voice parts for textural interest. Duration: ca. 1:50.

Philip Lawson : The William Tell Overture

Here is the famous Rossini overture in a rollicking arrangement for a cappella choruses and ensembles! The familiar melodies and clever vocal effects make this ideal for a lighter concert moment or an encore. Challenging, but fun to rehearse and perform!

Arranger: Philip Lawson | Composer: Gioachino Rossini
