Anthem and Jubilation ‘Deep River’ – Alto Saxophone w/Wind Ensemble
Traditional Gospel Tune
arr. Lewis Liddell, Sr.
This attention-grabbing setting of the traditional gospel tune ‘Deep River’ for mixed woodwinds and drum set, features the alto sax as a solo instrument. The introduction is a slow melodic, and handsomely harmonious reading of the tune. This in turn leads to the body of the work which is spirited and full of life.
