FOUR SPIRITUAL SONGS

Four settings of “white spirituals” containing melodic lines, mostly modal, and with strong rhythms, include:

1. Ho! every one that thirsts;
2. Old churchyard;
3. End of the world
4. Blos die Drompeten, blos!

(The latter song also contains a word-for-word translation, an English singing translation, and the IPA spelling of the “Pennsylvania Dutch” text.)
