Mixing
Melody Setting
This setting
of Give Me Liberty or
Give Me Death is written in
Four-Part Mixing Melody Style. Mixing Melodies Makes Marvelous Music is a
unique series of compositions written for high, medium-high, medium, and low
voices to be sung as solos, duets, trios, quartets, or in a choral setting.
Each part is written to be sung alone or in combination with any of the other
parts. Another unique feature is that the parts are limited to the ranges of
singers who are experiencing vocal mutation although they may be sung by
people of all ages provided their voices are suitable to the range of a
particular part. Often beginning readers have difficulty following one
specific part in a multiple-score setting, therefore each part is published
separately to aid singers who are learning to read music.

Variable Voicing Setting
This arrangement of Give Me Liberty or
Give Me Death is written in
Four-Part Variable Voicing Style.
Each of the two settings are characterized by a rock-oriented driving beat.
The accompaniment written for the composition is designed to be played by the
piano, but in reality it should be used to communicate the style and mood of
the piece. In actual performance it would be more effective if the piano were
replaced by authentic rock instruments such as electric guitars, electric
bass, organ, drums, etc. This piece is one of Dr. Collins' most popular
compositions. It is highly appealing to young singers.
