HOW TO USE THIS

Go Down Moses
This setting of the familiar spiritual is not what one would expect as a
spiritual arrangement, but more in the style of 1980’s media music. It is up
tempo and great fun to sing. The use of repeated motifs in the parts that
accompany the melody makes it very easy to learn. The simple piano accompaniment
adds a zip to the tempo and the mood of the piece. Young singers and adults as
well will really enjoy singing this piece.
The
four-part variable voicing chart
indicates how to use the piece with different age groups.

able to access an engraved copy of the piece. When the new page

the Cambiata Press website. After the music appears on your
screen, there are TWO WAYS to view and hear it:

the "play" icon and you will hear the piece played electronically, and
as it plays, the cursor will lead your vision through the piece.
Read the text as you listen to the music.
2. Click the
"Hear Choir Audio" link (upper right hand corner) to hear a
choral ensemble sing the piece. Use the Sibelius "page" icon to
move the pages of the engraved copy manually as you listen. Do
not click the "play" icon while the ensemble is singing or you will
hear both renditions simultaneously.
