Ht Elijah Rockarr. Jester Hairston. Jester Hairston
and his mentor Hal Johnson toured the rural
countryside in order to preserve the Negro spiritual.
His arrangement of Elijah Rock is a timeless gift

of spirituals. Elijah is probably his most famous and
rightfully so, how could you forget that bass comin'
at ya, "Elijah, Rock, Shout, Shout!"

on the heritage of the great arrangements
