Description
"Soon may the Wellerman come"---the chorus that turned a 19th-century New Zealand whaling song into a worldwide viral sensation. The verses spin the tale of a ship waiting for its supply boat, while the crew hopes for a taste of home. A "heave ho" body percussion breakdown sounds like sailors on deck, and an optional C-instrument obbligato adds a briny splash of color. Accessible part-writing and a swashbuckling pulse make this one quick to rehearse and hard to forget.
