Alfred Publishing Swing Low, Swing Low - Kern - SoundTrax CD

Arranger: Philip Kern
Format: CD
Version: SoundTrax CD to accompany choral octavo

A brilliant pairing of two favourite spirituals by Philip Kern. It's a high energy setting of "When the Saints Go Marchin' In," incorporating two exciting and original counter lines, ultimately combined with the familiar strains of "Swing Low Sweet Chariot." A spirited knockout! Opens with an energized unison, drives through a lively two-part partner song section, features a stunning solo verse accompanied by a finger-snapping a cappella choir, and grows into a full singing, multi-theme, raise-the-roof finish. Surprisingly not difficult to sing with appropriate vocal ranges, tuneful counter lines, and straightforward harmonic writing. Awesome instrumental parts or SoundTrax CD are available
