New to the Carl Fischer family, Abeni Janae (b. 2001) brings a fresh voice in her arrangement of this wonderfully rich African American spiritual. Accessible for mixed choirs of all sizes and abilities, there is pathos and passion in every phrase.
Keep in mind what this spiritual text represents, especially if you can relate to it on a personal level. Since it is a traditional spiritual, it is important to use appropriate pronunciations. That means it is acceptable not to pronounce some of the words the way we normally would in American English. For example: Do not pronounce the “t” in “little” too much, opting to pronounce it closer to “liddle.” Do not pronounce the “-er” in “longer” too much, opting to pronounce it as “lon-guh.” Whether or not the choir sings with much or minimal vibrato is at the discretion of the conductor/director.Mostly , have fun singing this piece!If you have any further questions about the background of this piece or anything of the sort, feel free to contact me at missabenijanae@gmail.com.

Here's a choral fantasy on the traditional African American spiritual, “Soon I Will Be Done.” The grave Wagnerian opening sets the stage for the fiery main theme of the piece–a triplet feeling motif in the lower piano that continues under each chorus statement of the melody. The choir re-enters in the role of the “orchestra” in the second chorus with a haunting legato counter melody that leads up to the first verse. Each verse should have a Gospel/Stride feel with the choir, particularly the upper voices, switching to a more Gospel sound and rhythmic feel. The A sections should be performed with aggression and angst to contrast the calm legato middle section. That middle section is our musical prayer of hope that, like the sentiment of this Spiritual, will continue to live in our hearts despite the sometimes difficult realities of life.
