Just one of the best slow tunes ever arranged for band. School bands can make a great job of it, while bands of greater ability will enjoy it too. A Spiritual, and so beautifully voiced for wind band by Fred J. Allen - Highly recomended repertoire.
“My Lord What a Morn in” is one of many anonymous spirituals sung in the fields and in worship by African-American slaves in the 19th century. In this setting, sonorities of the band are utilized which express a longing for the end of time, when there would be no sorrow, no pain. The last line of the refrain serves as the title for this setting.
