Note:
There are no actual lyrics in “Go.” Instead, Takach has combined phonemes together to sound improvised and to support the melody and rhythms. The piece features balanced phrases, but cutting an eighth note off the end changes the pulse from on the beat to off beat, then back. Singers will have no trouble learning the music, and will have a delightful time figuring out the rhythmic puzzle, yet all they have to do is keep a steady quarter pulse! Have fun with this one…
