Spirituals for Upper Voices

Expertly edited, this collection of twelve traditional spirituals from some of the most talented and respected spiritual arrangers in the United States delivers specially commissioned, authentic settings for treble choirs. Somebody's Knockin' at Yo' Do' and Deep River (with solo) are for SA voices;I Got a Robe; In Dat Great Gettin' Up Mornin' (with solo); Let Me Fly; There Is a Balm in Gilead (a cappella); I'm Gonna Sing (with solo, a cappella); and This Joy I Have (a cappella) are for SSA; and Lit'l David, Play on Yo' Harp (with solo); Scandalize My Name (with solo, a cappella); Didn't My Lord Deliver Daniel? (a cappella); and I Got a Home in-a Dat Rock (a cappella) are for SSAA. Many of the arrangements include a "lead voice" part, allowing the opportunity for solo singing, and idiomatic piano parts support the voices for the accompanied spirituals. Piano reductions are included for the unaccompanied arrangements.
