£64.35A Quiet Journey Home
Based on the well known spiritual, "His Eye Is On The Sparrow", this Grainger-esque setting is an outstanding programming choice for better bands. Pitched in the key of Db, the close harmonies require mature legato phrasing and close attention to dynamics at a slow tempo. Challenging, but well worth the effort, "A Quiet Journey Home" is an eloquent composition that will allow your group to expand its musical horizons. Very highly recommended!
