“Shenandoah” has long been a favorite American folk song with its plaintive melody and heartfelt text. Carl Nygard's pristine arrangement allows each part to shine brilliantly. The melody moves constantly between voices imitating the river's never-ending flow. Long phrases and ascending musical lines paint a wonderful image of the “wide Missouri.” A lovely contest or festival piece, or add it to your concert or program for a beautiful taste of Americana.
