BEST SELLER

voicing: SATB | catalog number: SBMP 575 | duration: 5:30 | price: $2.60
accompaniment: a cappella

Written by a professional vocal quartet of women named VIDA, (http://moirasmiley.com) and inspired by the stories of Sudanese basket weavers who expressed the pain and hope experienced by those in the famine of the 1980s, this is a most unusual and fascinating song. Arranger Culloton has captured all the pathos of the original version. A proven audience pleaser. Also available for SSAA.
