Excellent Choice for Developing Choirs
"Rainstorm!" is a fantastic piece for teaching young choirs. The easy parts are clearly written, making it accessible for developing singers to master tuning and rhythm. The 'Discovery Choral' series always delivers, and this octavo's layout is clean and easy to follow. Adding the percussion and finger snaps is a great way to engage students and enhance the musical experience. Highly recommend for school and community groups!

Strong Choral Writing for Dynamic Effect
As a vocal coach for youth choirs, I appreciate the accessible yet impactful vocal writing in "Rainstorm!". The 3-part harmony is well-voiced, promoting good intonation without complex demands. While primarily a cappella with percussion, the clear melodic lines and rhythmic interplay provide excellent support for each vocal section. It's a great piece for teaching dynamic control and ensemble blending to achieve that evocative storm effect.

Effective and Engaging for Performances
This Roger Emerson piece is a solid pick for quick festival prep or community performances. The 3-part mixed arrangement is straightforward, ensuring minimal rehearsal time for a polished sound. While there aren't explicit chord symbols for an accompanist, the clear vocal lines and suggested percussion make it highly effective for creating an immersive 'rainstorm' atmosphere. It's a crowd-pleaser and easy to learn.

I absolutely loved learning "Rainstorm!" with my community choir. Roger Emerson's composition is so creative, really making you feel like you're creating a weather phenomenon. The parts are genuinely 'easy,' which made it super enjoyable and not frustrating. It's so satisfying to hear it come together with the finger snaps and percussion – a truly unique and relaxing experience to perform!
