About the Score

"If I Had a Hammer (The Hammer Song)" is a song written by Pete Seeger and Lee Hays in 1949. Written in support of the progressive movement, it was first recorded by The Weavers, a folk music quartet composed of Seeger, Hays, Ronnie Gilbert and Fred Hellerman. The song was first performed publicly at a testimonial dinner for the leaders of the Communist Party of the United States who were then on trial in federal court, charged with advocating the overthrow of the U.S. government. The song fared notably better in commercial terms when it was recorded by Peter, Paul and Mary a dozen years later.

This arrangement is well-suited for choirs of adult beginners, and was commissioned by Dr. Adam Burdick for the North Seattle Community College Choir. North Seattle Community College
