In common with all Colin Tanser's songs, they are eminently 'singable'; and where there are accompaniments they are sensitive and effective.
The songs are set out in this volume moving from unaccompanied songs for single voice to unaccompanied songs with more than one voice. Then there come songs with accompaniment: those for single voice followed by those for more than one voice.
This collection of songs will be of great value in any setting, and particularly so in schools or communities.
Unless others stated, the words and music of the songs are all by Colin Tanser.
