Voicing: SSA with Piano and Trumpet
Arranged by Susan Brumfield
Your singers will feel like they are in a New Orleans jazz parade while learning and singing this arrangement of a traditional spiritual. Commissioned by the Florida Music Educators Association All-State Elementary Chorus, it is also appropriate for middle and high school treble choirs. One of the unique features of the arrangement, besides the varied rhythms and melodies, is that the second soprano and alto get equal time singing melodies. The trumpet is not optional.
