Hello,

I am running a workshop in how to do arrangements with an established group of good singers who normally work from sheet music.

I've got an hour and the plan is to split them into smaller groups of 3/4 people and arrange a verse of the same song each, then come together to show what they've all done at the end.

I'm looking for ideas of what song to use.

It needs to be quite simple, possibly with a chorus to bridge the gap between groups, and have 3/4 verses.

They've done some folk song in the past, but not all the classics. Any ideas?
