and Arac's little sister Anita has come into the theatre from her job at the strip joint next door.
She has already heard her brother Arac practising that song in which he gradually removes all his cumbersome armour, and she decides it is also a song for her.
Arac and his fellow guardsmen stand back and watch in great amusement as she performs her version of the song for them.

The music is almost, but not quite, a canon...
Versions are available in B flat mixolydian and in C mixolydian.
(ie major with flattened 7th)
When he killed the Mudjokivis,
of the skin he made him mittens,
Made them with the fur side inside,
Made them with the skin side outside.
He, to get the warm side inside,
Put the inside skin side outside;
He, to get the cold side outside,
Put the warm side fur side inside.
That's why he put the fur side inside,
Why he put the skin side outside,
Why he turned them inside outside less

While shepherds watched their flocks by Night in various melodies
It all began with the idea one morning that the "other tune" for Nahum Tate's carol "While shepherds watched" is,

of course, the Yorkshire ditty "On Ilkley moor bar t'hat".
Well, as the day progressed to afternoon, other tunes got added, resulting in a curious potpourri for choir and piano.
The choir gets to sing "On Ilkla Moor", the Este psalter tune known to all, and also Auld Lang Syne.
The second voice, in its madrigalian way, gets a sly English cadence!.
Meanwhile, the piano also gets some sly references to "Sing a song of sixpence" and "Scotland the brave".
I sang it in G (ATBB) on this video, to fit my multitrack range,
but mixed choir versions are also available on musicaneo:
in C (SATB) (fairly high for the sopranos)

and in Bflat (SATB) (fairly low for the basses)
