Dragon Dance. Upbeat reflections on a Chinese dragon's many feet, with a "partner song" finale. Composed by Elizabeth Alexander. For SA children's choir, piano. Secular, Chinese New Year. Medium-easy. Choral Score. Duration 2 minutes. Published by Seafarer Press. SF.SEA-001-02. The clever lyrics of this upbeat song describe a Chinese dragon with many different feet, a wholehearted affirmation of diversity within a community. Technical notes. Predominantly sung in unison, with a syncopated "partner song" finale. The verse of this song is "swung," and the chorus is "straight. " A bass player and drummer may be added in performance, if desired. Composer's note. I put this song under "Children's Choirs," because it's children who most often sing it, but adults enjoy it, too. It was originally composed for a whole congregation to sing while a Chinese dragon danced up and down the aisles. Its engaging jazz harmonies, colorful piano accompaniment, and easy-to-learn countermelody make it a memorable selection for both singers and audiences. Top Honors. Waging Peace through Singing Project. Themes. Dance, Diversity.
