Product Details

Product Description

This is a 10-minute long piece that traces the history of the song "We Shall Overcome," using narration and excerpts of ten versions of the song to educate about injustice and inspire hope. Its history is traced from its probable roots in slavery, to a Methodist hymn, through Pete Seeger, the Freedom Singers, and Joan Baez, and all the way to the present day. The piece ends with the performers and audience/congregation singing through the piece one last time, a capella, organically improvising harmonies. There are several opportunities for short solos, and one short a capella quartet section. 

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
