Down to the River to Pray
Traditional Appalachian Song
Timothy Howard
SAATTBB (divisi) unaccompanied
This arrangement of the Appalachian song brought to popu­lar at­ten­tion in the 2000 motion picture O Brother, Where Art Thou? is suitable for adults or youth. Opening with an alto solo, the ar­range­ment recalls the ro­bust har­monies and voicings of shape note singing, as well as the im­provi­sa­tory nature of many indigenous musical traditions.
