| Added by alastair-lewis, 31 Jan 2014 "When the Saints Go Marching In" is an Amercian gospel hymn. The song is sometimes still performed as a slow tempo spiritual, however since the middle of the 20th century is has increasingly been popular as a "hot" jazz number. This song is particularly associated with the home of Jazz, New Orleans. In this city the song is traditionally used as a funeral march at "Jazz funerals" - the band plays the tune as a slow lamentful dirge while accompanying the coffin to the cemetery, this all changes after the interment when the band switches to an upbeat "Dixieland" style of playing. Louis Armstrong was among the first to introduce "When the Saints Go Marching In" to the wider public in the 1930s. This is a free sheet music for tenor saxophone and piano duet.
