Flying Dutchman Teacher Resource Pack

PERFORMING
Learn each of the sections of the Sailor’s Chorus, either by rote or practising sight singing.
Note that a piano reduction of the orchestral accompaniment has been made for teacher
use however, there is also a series of backing track recordings accompanying this resource
which frees the teacher up to direct the lesson if preferred.
CONTEXT: The Sailors have been at sea for a long time and are now about to leave their
work and go enjoy some leave (free time) on land. They are really looking forward to time
off the boat away from their work. Think about this as you sing the song.
