Sing! by David Willcocks
for SATB and organ, or orchestra, or brass ensemble An arrangement for SATB choir, which can be sung with the original organ part of the famous Toccata from Widor's Symphony no. 5, a favourite wedding voluntary. Material for the orchestral and brass accompaniments is available on hire.
It will certainly be an interesting addition to the repertoire of a good church choir* Henry Howells, Australian Music Teacher *
