Description:
The transcription of melodies contained in this collection has been praised as "the most complete expression of Mr. Coleridge-Taylor's native bent and power." Using native songs of Africa and the West Indies with those that came into being in America during slavery, he has preserved their distinctive characteristics and individuality, while giving them an art form fully infused with their musical essence. Available in three volumes, book 3 includes melodies from America. Included in Book 2: 1. Many thousand gone; 2. My Lord delivered Daniel; 3. Oh, He raise a poor Lazarus; 4. Pilgrim's song; 5. Run, Mary, run; 6. Sometimes I feel like a motherless child; 7. Steal away; 8. Wade in the water. Reprint edition.
