Multiple players may be used on each part to expand the ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis arrangement is hugely influenced by jazz. The extended two-part introduction begins hymn-like and then breaks out in a jubilant jazzy section. This is followed by a more traditional rendering of the spiritual; however, as the music reaches its climax, the jazz 'licks' from the introduction are brought back as counterpoint against the main melody of the spiritual. The result is exhilarating, and for a bit of humor, just as the work ends, there is a 'tongue-in-cheek' plagal cadence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brixton Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46967549755686,"sku":"B1017","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/50000000000B1017_d.jpg?v=1697491834","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/buss-hj-dry-bones","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
