I wrote and arranged this energetic song honoring music and other sounds of life around us. The men’s version is published by the BHS. There is now an SATB version for YMIH/YWIH singers, as well one for women’s voices. Some versions have my original tag, while others feature a powerful ending that pal Kirk Young stole—I mean, tastefully borrowed—from a different David Wright chart.
