About this item
This lively original work embodies the character and spirit of the African-American spiritual. Combining themes of struggle, oppression, and hope for the future, the music begins quite vigorously before easing into a haunting middle section. Soon after, the music returns to its joyous nature, which is carried through to the spirited ending. Includes optional percussion.
