This beloved American folk lullaby incorporates the repeated word “hush-a-bye” throughout the arrangement, creating a sweet and calming effect as the melody weaves in and out between the different vocal lines. Simple and straightforward, the setting imparts a quiet note of sadness and longing. Duration: ca. 2:40.
