Deep River

灵歌中描述的挣扎和苦难与对美好生活的无限憧憬相辅相成。深河》是最受欢迎的灵歌之一；它的长句旋律要求持续的气息控制和真正的形体感。旋律的第一段和第二段之间可以形成很大的对比，在 "那里一切都很平静"（两次都是！）这句话周围，可以欣赏到更具冒险精神的和声。惯用的'涟漪'钢琴声部应演奏得非常连贯，但节奏要平稳清晰"

原文简介:
The struggle and suffering described in spirituals go hand in hand with an overwhelming sense of hope for a better life. Deep River is one of the most popular spirituals; its long-phrase melody calls for sustained breath control and a real sense of shape. Much contrast can be made between the first and second sections of the melody, and enjoy the more adventurous harmony around the words ‘where all is peace’ (both times!). The idiomatic ‘rippling’ piano part should be played very legato, but with a steady, clear tempo. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series, offering a selection of beautifully crafted arrangements in a diversity of musical styles. From Broadway, pop and folk to spirituals, gospel and original works, the series is arranged for 3-part choir (soprano, alto and a combined male-voice part) providing flexibility for any choir. Complete with straight-forward piano accompaniments supporting the vocal lines, the Faber Choral Singles series guarantees the perfect repertoire for every occasion – so get exploring and get singing!
