CGA969 Sweet Chariot
Description
Both youth and adult choirs will find this beautiful, new arrangement of the traditional spiritual, 'Swing Low, Sweet Chariot' a joy to learn and sing. Lush harmonies and use of creative expressive markings give singers an excellent opportunity to develop ear training and musical expression skills. Each time the refrain occurs, a solo voice or small ensemble sings the melody as the choir provides a gentle vocal accompaniment underneath. The choir sings each of the stanzas sharing the melody between the women and men's parts.
Voicing: SATB, a cappella
Composer: Traditional spiritual
Arranger: Berg, Ken
Text Author: Traditional spiritual
