A River Trilogy provides a wonderful opportunity for first year bands to work on legato style. After an original introduction, the full ensemble plays the African-American spiritual 'Deep River.' A clarinet and flute duet ushers in the early English folk song 'The Water is Wide,' and the full band concludes with a lovely treatment of the American classic 'Shenandoah.'
