PARTNER SONGS ˆ Compiled by Pam StoverDefinition :
Partner songs are two different songs that have a similar harmonic
structure and length, so they may be sung together. A quodlibet (or
quodlibot) is a four-section song (or four songs) that can be sung
together. Sometimes the partner songs work only if one of the songs is
sung twice, or slowed...it's really fun to experiment with them. Some are
simple tunes that could be played on recorder or barred instruments
instead of sung. Orff accompaniments usually work well.
