SATB choir, optional piano
SKU: EC.5881
Composed by Louis Reichwein. 20th Century. Octavo. Duration 1 minute, 15 seconds. E.C. Schirmer Publishing #5881. Published by E.C. Schirmer Publishing (EC.5881).UPC: 600313458811. Text: Slave Songs of the US (1867).
The chorus comments how vain and insolent “Mister Banjo” is, with his cocked hat and walking stick. The music is appropriately jaunty and the piano part (which is optional) gives just the right pluck here and there. For an accomplished and agile group that can handle SSAATTBB divisi.
