The title SILVER RIBBON CHANTEYS comes from the fascinating history of Ohio and the collections of great old folk songs that came into existence because of the Ohio-Erie Canal. There are three distinctly different movements, each featuring one historic canal folk song. The diverse folksongs call for a wide range of playing styles and make a well-balanced and interesting combination. These hearty, old canal folk songs are real diamonds in the rough - students and audiences alike are sure to enjoy this delightful arrangement.
