Nine Hundred Miles

The crisp, rhythmic energy which mimics a train underlies the dynamic modal groove in this American folk song arrangement for mixed or tenor-bass voices. The creative use of independent vocal ostinato patterns in the lower parts gives significant vocal interest for each part. Performance options are included to employ a soloist at the beginning, and for singers to clap a light eighth note pattern in certain sections to mimic the click-clacking sound of the train. Exciting!
