Originally performed for Booker T. Washington in 1900, it is sometimes called the 'African-American National Anthem.' This setting, by Bob Phillips, teaches 6/8 and uses chromatic alterations in first position. A vocal lead sheet is included in the reproducible educational packets. The cross-curricular programming possibilities are vast. (2:40) / Orchestre A Cordes
