"Down to the River to Pray," is a traditional American song often referred to as an African-American spiritual. Scot Candal's accessible a cappella SATB arrangement is functional and delightful. Crandal suggests layering in each voice of the choir with each verse for greater impact. Appropriate for Baptism and Rites of Christian Initiation of Adults, "Down to the River to Pray" is a crowd pleaser!
