I think I speak for everyone when I say that one of the greatest attractions of choral Music is the feeling of union and of fraternity that we can create. After all, the Choir is the only instrument that is alive and sounds better the livelier and the mor...

This short, lively SATB piece is loads of fun and highlights the quintessential elements of the Acadian folksong tradition: podorythmie (seated foot-tapping), diddlage (mouth Music), and the spoons.

Though this folksong can be found in other parts of French Canada, I chose to feature the Acadian dialect in this rendition because it is emblematic of the role that language sometime plays in creating social inequity. Story synopsis: For those unfamiliar with the language, this video helps tell the song’s funny story of a young woman, Marie Madeleine, who has a rather difficult relationship w...    less
