Two
Parts
Three Parts
Part I of this African-American Spiritual is written to
be sung by both or either male and female trebles. Part II (also written in the treble clef) is limited to the comfortable singing area
of A-A (above and below middle C) which makes it appropriate for cambiatas
(boys in the first phase of change). Part III in the three-part
arrangement is written in the bass clef to be sung by adolescent baritones
and changed voices. Rated as easy, the
piece has a very lively piano accompaniment which adds more energy to the
already energetic piece.
However, it may be sung acappella, if desired. Consult the
two-part variable voicing chart
and the
three-part variable
voicing chart
to see the other voicing options that are
available.
