This traditional spiritual is set with divisi choral parts and requires a mezzo-soprano soloist who can soar over the choir, carry the music and bring style and passion to the rendering. Beautiful legato and dynamically subtle singing by the choir is a must with the results being a most satisfying performance for singer and listener.

Light, fast, strong and accented describe this arrangement of the traditional spiritual. This is a wonderful contrast to the heavy style so often associated with traditional spirituals. Each of the voice parts gets to carry the melody throughout the course of the arrangement creating extra interest for the singers.

A light, brisk spiritual arranged for a cappella voices. With independent lines playing with each other throughout, giving some gospel-type solos for the soprano section, the piece makes an excellent concert/festival selection for an advanced choir! Good choice!

This traditional spiritual comes out of the work song tradition. It is firm and strong and features a baritone soloist who instructs the singers to keep their hands on the plow. The call and response between soloist and choir is classic and offers a wonderful opportunity to teach this style so important in our history.

The melodies in this medley come from Early American sources. The opening fife tune was found in a Revolutionary War collection. Our Native Land appeared in a school music book in 1871. The Appalachian tune can be found in many shape-note hymnals. And the march entitled Washington Crossing the Delaware is from the late 18th century. The optional score and parts for full orchestra (00201894) make this a wonderful concert closer for a concert of early American songs, Patriotic songs, and indigenous songs of our country.

A heavy blues beat defines this arrangement of this traditional spiritual. The arranger calls for wailing and the passion required from the chorus and the mezzo-soprano soloist are critical in bringing this arrangement to life. This is a classic example of the concert spiritual.

This distinctive spiritual arrangement adds to the considerable body of choral work Alice Parker has created during her remarkable career. Imaginative, compelling, always melodic, it is among her finest in this genre.

This arrangement of a traditional spiritual is set in an easy swing style and is a song full of hope and joy. All of the voice parts contain divisi and are exposed, allowing the opportunity to feature each section. The end of this arrangement diminuendos to a soft and simple statement signifying the inner joy that each of us can experience when we allow it to happen.
