American Folk Set Low Voice - Sheet Music

Comprised of fifteen songs, each are mini-dramas. Something is happening in each one of them. Someone is traveling, working, or suffering. Their messages are universal to the human experience. They still resonate. Kohn did extensive editing of the available texts to keep the storytelling succinct. "I arranged these songs, but I did not write them. Our ancestors, storytellers with great musical talent, did that many years ago." -Steven Mark Kohn, 2000 Contents:Ten Thousand Miles AwayOn the Other ShoreThe Farmer’s Curst WifeWanderin’Red Iron OreThe Bachelor’s LayDown, Down, DownThe Old Woman’s CourtshipThe Ocean BurialCaliforniaThe Gallows TreeI’m a Stranger HereThe Drunken Old FoolPoor Wayfaring StrangerHell in Texas
