Going Across the Mountain
A cappella
This arrangement contrasts the unbridled optimism and resolve of a person heading off to war with the bittersweet nostalgia of leaving a special person behind, along with the promise of return. In the style of an Appalachian folk song, this piece typifies a unique American style of singing. This challenging piece for better a cappella choirs gives many opportunities for teaching historical context, style and interpretation.
