| General Comments: | This arrangement serves as a very valuable, educational tool because not only does it contain the famous Shaker melody, but it is easy enough for a young band to play. The piece demands very little technically, but requires expressive legato playing. This is a good piece also because it will help the band identify larger, more advanced works that they may encounter later. | |
