1. Deep River is honestly rather different from the antebellum songs

we learned about from chapter 4. However, like the other pieces,
there is a featured voice. While in the earlier songs, there is a
featured voice who sings the line and then has a response, in
Deep South, rather than a call and response, the Alto voice just
acts as the dominant and more present voice. Over the melodic
line of the Alto, the Sopranos sing a pretty angel like descant.
Even though it isnt call and response, not all voice parts sing the
song entirely. In the beginning of the piece, the other voice parts
only sing some of the key words, with an extended melody.
2. Deep River definitely sounds more choir like. The voices blend
and come together with beautiful, united and rhythmical
harmony. Unlike Carrie Belle and Jubilee, there is no intention to
create rhythms or a back beat. In Carrie Belle, they used rope
pulls and in Jubilee they used the sound of the broom stick to
make noises that werent coming from their mouths.
3. There is something more beautiful to me about the unity of the
piece, Deep River. It is meant to be sung chorally, rather than
freely and thus sounds more put together. Yet, they both share
emotion in the text and in the way in which they are sung.
Whether sung freely or perfectly in sync, they both have very
meaningful lyrics.
