Product Details


Product Description

A flexible a cappella arrangement of this uplifting spiritual / Appalachian hymn for female voices.
Also known as Down to the River to Pray and Down in the Valley to Pray, the song became popular after a recording by Alison Krauss was used in the film O Brother, Where Art Thou? 
This score begins with one vocal line and builds up to 4 parts as the song progresses.
You could start with solos or small groups and add voices or start in unison and gradually divide into parts. For SSA ensembles you could treat the final part to enter as a descant with a small group of voices.

There are FREE learning tracks to accompany this arrangement - just email keepcalmkeepsinging@gmail.com with proof of purchase. 

Easy level
Duration: 3'15"
