Phil Beaman #6501399. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.845254). This easy Instrumental Quartet arrangement of the old folk/spiritual draws its power and effectiveness from its pared down simplicity. It is reharmonized from other traditional versions and kept in strophic form. Every measure has the same rhythm - a quarter note followed by a dotted half note. Most of the time the pair of notes is the same pitch. There is plenty of time to figure out your next new note. There are no extra markings, just basic notes with a few accidentals. The beauty comes from the harmonic chords, so strive to listen for a good balance in your ensemble.This piece can be played majestic or meditative, depending on your mood and event needs. Simple, beautiful, and flexible; just what every musician needs in their repertoire. Great for classroom work as a first ensemble piece and the first small recital piece. Range - Part 1 is 1 octave; Parts 2, 3, 4 is only a fifth2 page score, 1 page @ part0:50 - 1:15 minutes with repeat
