Rhythm of the Nations: Ipharadisi (Ee Pah Rah Dee See), Conductor Score

This is a fun and rhythmic South African folk song. The arrangement could be performed with or without choir, or it could involve members of the band singing. The optional repeats can be used to shorten, extend or add new textures as the conductor sees fit. Sections could also be repeated as many times as desired to allow for extensive hand drumming by the percussion section, members of the band or even selected members of the audience! The choir part is very straightforward and could be learned and memorized quickly.
