UPC: 038081536378. English. Traditional Spiritual.
A clever arrangement of the traditional spiritual that includes a surprise nod to Handel's Hallelujah Chorus plus an optional part for autoharp! The pentatonic chorus is great for teaching or reinforcing solfège, while the harmonies are appropriately independent for developing singers. A few new words tell us more about the heroic boy, David. A terrific teaching piece that kids will enjoy!
