Barrage8 has suggested Mountain Spring and Calypso Jam for the combined pieces- Music and MP3 files can be found at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rmaeyt1lrogy7wv/AADXg2TPXsS-IJ6OKGVr0sAha?dl=0
The Calypso Jam arrangement is written for elementary to middle school players to advanced high school players. There is a Bachmann arrangement (Mel Bay publishing) that will work with these arrangements too if you would like
The Mountain Spring arrangement is written at 2 levels. You can try to balance the parts equally with equal number of players you have, but it is not necessary. Give the parts that match abilities and we will fill in the holes. This is a great alternative piece to play in addition to something else. The Bachmann arrangement will work with these arrangements too (just repeat the first 2 measures).
