This up-tempo novelty piece is a medly of three of Stephen Collins Foster's 19th century popular songs including Oh, Susanna, Camptown Races, and Beautiful Dreamer. It is written in four-part variable voicing with an optional Part IV (it sounds fine with or without it). It is designed to be sung acappella or with piano accopmpaniment written in typcial um-pah folk style. The first two brisk folk songs are followed with arguably Foster's most beautiful composition, Beautiful Dreamer. So the piece begins with a band and ends with a beautiful, legato, and moving presentation. The voice parts are very melodic which make it easy to learn. This is a great piece for a concert featuring American folk music.
