CRCP Volume 7: Buckeye Jim is a rousing folk song arranged for the 30th anniversary celebration of the Indianapolis Children’s Choir. The voices are layered in, one upon another, building up excitement at the joyous interactions among birds, animals, and humans. The repeated ‘weaving and spinning’ in the text are felt in the piano as well as within the cleverly crafted melodic motifs of the vocal lines. All ages will enjoy the fun of this nonsense song.
