A wonderful setting for this exquisite song - for solo voice, flute and piano!

Simple to order, simple to receive - it came fast and in great condition. I love Sheet Music Plus!

The product was in perfect shape when it arrived, but arrived far too late. I ordered two day delivery in order to have this music for the soloist at my wedding, and it didn't arrive for a week and a half! I was forced to buy another copy from a different vendor who DID deliver on time.

I had sung this years ago and somehow misplaced my copy, so I needed a replacement. It is one of my favorite solos, and it is the first song in Bernstein's Mass. Though it is called A Simple Song, it is fairly difficult because it requires one to sing very softly at times, and there are many large intervals that would make it a problem for beginners. I have been a Church Musician for over 40 years in 12 different churches. The Dvorak Biblical Songs have some similarity to this, especially God is My Shepherd.

Mass is such a complex work...and yet A Simple Song is both complex and simple at the same time. Bernstein's work is so rhythmic, especially for his time. People often forget about his symphonies, and focus on his musicals. I'm fortunate to have a recording of the piece as originally done, instead of the tendency to make it operatic. It's a very special song...
