This arrangement was commissioned by the Waterloo Region District School Board's Kodály Choral Festival, Kitchener Ontario in 2008. This is a medium-difficult arrangement for the choir, and I would be inclined to suggest it for an auditioned group. In addition, it requires a pianist with fairly good chops!
Features changing time signatures (6/8 to 9/8 and back), as well as changing beat subdivision as you'll see at the bottom of the second page (see the score sample in the repertoire list). The arrangement makes use of changing key and fluctuating tempos. It's quite a fun arrangement, and will be an interesting addition to your repertoire list if you're interested in a unique take on folksong.
