Students confidently tell their story as though from the mountaintops in this African American Spiritual. With straightforward rhythms and pitches, the right arm and bow hand can be the focus to achieve a convincing proclamation tone, as well as a lush but gentle sound in the subdued moments. A wonderful change of pace that is still at a moderate tempo.

Lower strings be sure to maintain a steady pulse and dont rush the walking figure at the opening. When the melody is transferred to the lower strings (pick-up to m. 10 and m. 13), play with a full sound. Be careful of the balance and allow the soloist to dominate in mm. 121. If the soloist is comfortable using third position, play mm. 119 and the first half of m. 20 one octave higher. All parts should be in a solid marcato style in the fast section (m. 22 to the end). In m.50, Violin I should bring out the Hava Nagila quote equal to the volume of the rest of the orchestra. Be sure to observe all the soft dynamics to add interest to the performance.

This aggressive mixed-meter work relies heavily on pulse and the mixed placement of accents to create exceptional momentum. The composer makes extensive use of simple double stops to create big layers of sound that contrast with lighter, more delicate moments. A powerhouse work for your next concert!
