Announcing a short, easy, whimsical St. Francis’ Day piece

September 16, 2014 by Clare Shore Leave a Comment

Hello, friends!
 
If you’re looking for a short piece to serve as an introit, etc., on St. Francis’ Day, you can listen to (and order) my ‘God Bless the Animals’ for unison chorus and piano on SheetMusicPlus (Published by E.C. Schirmer Publishing – EC.7693):
http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/look_inside?R=19638328
 
“Is your puppy jimmerjawed?
Does your cat have four left paws? Does your turtle lack a tail?
Does your parrot really smell? Oh, God bless the animals, pretty, witty animals.
God bless the animals, large and small, furry, hairy, stinky, smelly, slimy, feathered,
finned and scaly. God bless the animals (one and all).”
