      Except potentially for the Altos, lots of Ah's, Oh's, and ooooo's, less words to memorize and stumble over.

      These types of songs are really only performed by more advanced choirs, though. A beginner boys/girls choir would not be singing a song like this

    Le plaisir de chanter !!! Cette joie est vraiment communicative et quels beaux sourires !
    Comme toujours cette chorale est d'un excellent niveau et j'apprécie tant leur répertoire que leur talent collectif.
    En général ils sont assez statiques et bougent lentement de droite et de gauche en vagues d'un bel effet.
    Mais là !!! Ils et elles 's'éclatent' c'est la grande récréation !!!! Et ça nous convient très bien puisque au bout de quelques instants on se prend à se tortiller sur sa chaise en les écoutant. Belles harmonies et bon sens du rythme ! BRAVO !!!!
