Spiritual Medley 灵歌组合曲
这首《灵歌混合曲》由三首歌曲组成,讲述了一段经历考验最终获得救赎和自由的旅程。它的节奏和能量应从略带反思的开头逐渐加强,但始终保持活泼的感觉。All My Trials》是上世纪五六十年代流行的一首抗议歌曲,曾被琼-贝兹、保罗-麦卡特尼和猫王等人录制。By and By》是一首更加欢快的歌曲,带有大量切分节奏和更加直率的动态,在演唱和演奏时应充满活力。这首曲子是真正的 "朝圣之旅",充满了磨难和心碎,但从未放弃希望和最终的解脱。在这最后一段,节奏应真正加快,在低音线和更多爵士和声的激励下,在最后几个小节达到高潮"

原文简介:
This Spiritual Medley comprises three songs that speak of a journey through trial to eventual salvation and liberty. It should gradually gather pace and energy from a slightly more reflective start, though retaining a lively feel throughout. All My Trials developed into a popular protest song in the 1950s and 60s and has been recorded by, amongst others, Joan Baez, Paul McCartney and Elvis Presley. By and By is a more upbeat song with plenty of syncopated rhythms and more forthright dynamics – it should be sung and played with lots of energy. The medley ends with I Want Jesus to Walk With Me, a true ‘pilgrim journey’ full of trials and breaking hearts, but never giving up on hope and final deliverance. The tempo should really pick up for this final section, galvanised by the walking bass line and more jazzy harmonies, and reaching its climax in the final few measures.
