Partner Song List

Partner songs are two songs that have a similar harmonic structure and length allowing them to be sung together. A quodlibet is when four sections of songs or four full songs are combined. Some well-known partner song combinations included in the list are "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" and "Bow Belinda" as well as "Frere Jacques" and "Are You Sleeping?". An effective music lesson can analyze where two songs do not blend well when combined.

PARTNER SONGS

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. Some are simple tunes that could be played on recorder or barred
instruments instead of sung. Orff accompaniments usually work well. Some combinations of these songs work better than
others. An effective lesson can also be taught analyzing where 2 songs don’t seem to “go together”.
