Mixing Melody Setting
America, the Beautifulis written in Four-Part Mixing Melody Style. It has four written parts, but each of the parts may be sung as a unison piece or you may combine any two, three, or four-parts, depending on the current voicing of your choir.
Each melody is very fluid so the piece has a nice legato effect. It has limited ranges which make it apropriate for early adolescent singers, but it is also accessible for older adolescents or adults, particularly if the choir has an over abundance of women and just a few men.
