End Of An Era, The
by Teresa Jennings"The End Of An Era" is designed to be performed by singers of any age. The melody is memorable, easy, and short. In between the lines of the verse, there are solo spoken responses.
The recording features penny whistle, piano, guitar, bass, drums, percussion, and strings. The strings and penny whistle in particular add a lot to the performance, but the piano part is quite playable, in case you would prefer to use the piece live. If you do, you might want to add your own penny whistle, flute, or other C instrument for the solo part at the end. The solo is the tune "Taps," which is often used to mark the end of an era or a farewell to someone or something. It is indicated on the piano/vocal score. (from Music K-8, Vol. 10, No. 3)
