Arirang

Traditional Korean Folk Song

"Arirang" is a Korean folk song that is often considered to be the anthem of Korea. There are about 3,600 variations of 60 different versions of the song, all of which include a refrain similar to, "Arirang, arirang, arariyo". It is estimated the song is more than 600 years old. "Arirang" is included twice on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage list. South Korea successfully submitted the song for inclusion on the UNESCO list in 2012. North Korea also successfully submitted the song for inclusion in 2014. In 2015, the South Korean Cultural Heritage Administration added the song to its list of important intangible cultural assets. The song is sung today in both North and South Korea, a symbol of unity in an otherwise divided country, since the Korean war.

VOENA is a children's choir unique to the United States: children as young as six and as old as 18, multicultural in their backgrounds, living and growing up in America, blending their most natural birth given voices." This is how Annabelle Cruz, Director, describes the choir she has brought together with the hope that they become not just a choir but a family...a VOENA family. The 56-strong mixed choir bring us 26 joyous songs, beginning with their own song, "Voena Story," the marvelous "Prayer of the Children," an original with lively percussion by the Director, "Holy Spirit, Come" (she also wrote the excellent "Scat Play," "Clap Your Hands," and "One Light, One Voice," as well as arranging and writing lyrics for other tunes) and continuing with folk songs and spirituals from the Bantu African, Gaelic, Russian, Filipino, Korean, Ladino, 16th century Spanish, Eastern European Jewish, South African, African American, Hebrew, Japanese, 17th Century German, Guam and Old English traditions. Listening to this fun, spirited stuff gives you hope and inspiration--just what the doctor ordered these days! Some light percussion. Recommended.

Arirang : SAB : Brad Printz : Sheet Music : 15-2554H : 9781429107303

Brad Printz : Arirang

A bestseller in a new voicing! This stunning arrangement of the popular Korean folk song speaks of Ahrirang Hill outside of Seoul, a location believed to be a symbol of personal contentment and triumph. Capturing the style of Korean music, which is highly personal and tender with sentiments of love and peace, this arrangement also illustrates the contrast between Korean and Western music, with the middle section purposely crafted using common Western chords and harmonies. The canonic nature of the modal melody presents an excellent opportunity to develop independent part singing.
