Oh, Won't You Sit Down?

 

This piece is best suited for all-male groups.  The three parts include one part in the treble clef to be sung at actual pitch by boy trebles and/or cambiatas.  The other two parts are written in the bass clef to be sung by adolescent baritones and changed voices.  As characteristic of many spirituals, it consists of question/answer dialog throughout with the question often in the form of a section solo.  Lawrence has provided two endings.  The first is in a comfortable tessitura for the voices, whereas the second lies in the upper register of the voices providing a more dynamic conclusion.  The director may choose the ending best suited for his/her group.

 

The three-part variable voicing chart indicates how to use the piece with different age groups.
