TTBB: Sea Chanties
Date: Tue, 2 May 1995 14:56:15 +1000 (EST) From: Noel Ancell Subject: Shanties for male voices
It is so long since I asked for help finding shanties for male voice choirs that I feel rather hesitant about posting the results. But here they are.
Shaw/Parker arrangements, published in the Robert Shaw Choral Series by Lawson Gould : 51052 Swansea Town 51053 What shall we do with the drunken Sailor? 51054 A-Roving 51055 Blow the man down 51057 The drummer and the Cook 51062 Shenandoah
Marshall Bartholomew (&/or Fenno Heath) arrangements, published in the Yale Glee Club Series by G. Schirmer : 7211 Shenandoah 7241 Three Shanteys (Eight Bells, Away to Rio, Old Man Noah) 7422 What shall we do with the drunken sailor? 7577 High Barbary (arr. Arthur E. Hall) 7755 Two Chanteys (Mobile Bay, A-roving)
And... Blow ye winds, arr. David Stocker (Thomas House Publ 1C369407) The Drunken Sailor, arr. Robert Sund (Walton SK589)
I also understand that Richard Terry published two sets of Shantie arrangements, but so far have been unable to locate them.
Thanks to Galen Darrough, Marty Hook, Dennis Nance, Marion Dolan, Michael Grice, Vernon Sanders, Walter Collins, Steve Kujawa, John Hall and Paul Sinasohn for their suggestions.
