David Rain: "Let's Sing, it's Spring!", #4 (Spring) Ottawa Four Seasons Suite (sung by Matthew Curti

I have given this song the sub-title: "A Crazy Choral Etude for Rolled Rs and Perfect 5ths." It is meant, no pun intended, to be a musical lark, great fun for a choir to Sing, rolling Rs like crazy, with no holding back.

"Let's Sing, it's Spring!", with its rousing coda section, works perfectly as the closing number of this suite.
Also of note, in early 2018, I applied to be a participant at one of the Vancouver Chamber Choir's Interplay workshops funded by the SOCAN Foundation and to my delight I was accepted.
"Let's Sing, it's Spring!" was one of the pieces that this amazing choir sight read for me on the sp... less
