Choral (SAB Choir)
SKU: HL.276437
Composed by Eric Whitacre. Arranged by Emily Crocker. Eric Whitacre Choral. Concert, Festival. Octavo. 12 pages. Hal Leonard #276437. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.276437).UPC: 888680746483. 6.75x10.5x0.029 inches. Eric Whitacre/Rudyard Kipling.
This loving and dreamlike work, now available in multiple voicings including SA, TB & SAB, captures the undulating rhythm of a mother rocking her child to sleep. The text is a classic by Rudyard Kipling: “Oh! Hush thee, my baby, the night is behind us, And black are the waters that sparkled so green. The moon, o'er the combers, looks downward to find us, At rest in the hollows that rustle between.” Magical!

Excellent for Developing Choirs
This SAB arrangement of 'The Seal Lullaby' is an excellent addition for school and community choirs. The clear engraving from Hal Leonard supports easy part-reading for students. Whitacre's characteristic harmonies are present but accessible, making it superb for teaching lyrical phrasing and blend. The 'undulating rhythm' helps develop expressive singing. Highly recommend for intermediate ensembles.

A Dream to Sing!
I absolutely adore singing Eric Whitacre's 'The Seal Lullaby'! This SAB version is just so beautiful and rewarding for our community choir. The 'loving and dreamlike' quality, coupled with the 'undulating rhythm,' makes it incredibly enjoyable. It's perfectly achievable for us weekend singers, and we truly feel like we're creating something magical. Definitely brings a smile to my face!
