A river finds its ripples: the traditional gospel tune "Down to the River to Pray" flows into the surging waters of rhythm and blues. A duet for viola and piano, this arrangement is especially effective as a prelude, postlude or special music for traditional church services and other worship events, including youth rallies. Also recommended for recitals, concerts and anywhere upbeat, joyful music is played. Key: D major. 9 pages of music (that includes a separate two-page pullout viola part).
