Counterpoint: Partner Songs and Canons for Singers of Any Age compiled and edited by Anna Wentlent
Encourage independent harmony singing with this carefully chosen collection of partner songs and canons. With accessible mid-range vocal parts, universal themes, and a number of folk songs and classical melodies, this practical resource will be useful year after year. The Music and lyrics will appeal to any age: fourth-graders just beginning their choral journey, developing middle schoolers, high school students in need of review and reinforcement, and even inexperienced adults. Includes reproducible song sheets with isolated vocal parts, making it easy to find, follow, and mark parts. The piano accompaniment tracks may be used in rehearsal, for performance, or as an at-home tool for individual practice. Great for beginners or as a rebuilding resource!

Titles include: “Alleluia! I Will Sing,” “Circle of Our Song,” “How I Love My America,” “Peaceful River,” “Snow Is Falling Still,” “Figgy Pudding!,” “Hine Ma Tov,” “Kyrie Canon,” “A Mozart Canon,” and “The Water Is Wide.”
