A unique and evocative arrangement of the traditional American folk and gospel song about a plaintive soul on their journey through life. This spiritual piece for 2-part TB male voices features a John Barry-esque film-score opening, evoking the wilderness of a desolate wilderness. A subsequent upbeat rhythm with hopeful vocal call and echo further paints the landscape of a stranger on horseback, gently traversing the Appalachian mountains; rising to a joyous peak, subsequently dying away as the lonesome traveller draws to their journey's spiritual end. Impressionistic allegorical story-telling at it's best. Highly recommended for beginners.
