Tree Song

  • ** 'As a tree gives so it receives' is about statement; purpose; a gift of the earth
  • Every time we sing "As a tree gives" - open mouth, drop chin, round oval sound when you sing "As";
  • Break after "gives" , before "so it receives" in M25-26;
  • Be aware of the triplets and douplets, such as in M33-35, and sing them differently;
    When we sing "summer and fall" - open mouth, drop chin, round oval sound when you sing "fall.";
  • At section B, things become playful, and move faster; be ready for that with our "popular, persimmon..";
  • When singing "juniper, joshua, jellyfish..", wants a big J for all those J words;
  • At section C we will start a little softer, so that we can build it to M133 "Roots, trunk, branches, leaves";
  • Do not rush the douplets starting at M128- "amla, sal, linden, laurel, lilac, larch".
