Journey On!
Dynamic rhythms and a fiery piano accompaniment will delight your TTBB choir.
for TTBB choir and piano
In “Journey On, “ Harris demonstrates a limitless ability to transform and develop both rhythmic and melodic ideas. One might say that the message of the piece—to “journey on”—is represented by a dazzling musical journey through meter, rhythm, melody, and texture. The piano accompaniment drives the work onward, with a Bach-like rhythmic motor, while every voice part has something fun and exciting to sing. “Journey On” is also a great piece for teaching students the function and expressive values of hemiola, metrical variety, and rhythmic contrast.
Text
A path awaits your feet and faith; and while you tread upon it
think of nothing less than strength.
Journey on!
The path is sometimes dim but shine your light onto the bend
and curve and forge the consequence.
Journey on!
May your hopes beget your dreams;
Your strength be unremitting;
May your light be bright and gleaming;
your feet, steadfast and true.
Journey on!
-Devondra F. Banks
