Thula, Babana (Xhosa Lullaby) - CME Intermediate - Hendrik Hofmeyr - 4-Part Treble Boosey & Hawkes Octavo

This traditional lullaby is from the eastern coatal region of South Africa. The singular sweetness of the melody has made it a favorite with South African choirs and audiences. In this arrangement, the melody is repeated several times, passing from one voice to the other, with a gradual variation and accumulation of accompanying texture, before fading into silence. (3:00)
