James Weldon Johnson's powerful poem, “O Southland!,” receives an altogether new musical treatment with this moving piece for treble voices and piano. Utilizing quotes of Negro spiritual repertory and the call-and-response of the Black church, you and your singers will enjoy this beautiful conjunction of melodic lilt and rhythmic verve, fueled by Johnson's timeless lyric. Your collaborative pianist and bassist should add another level of excitement via the harmonic influences of jazz and Black gospel music.
