And So I Sing—Christi Jones.
This poignant setting of a powerful text by James Weldon
Johnson, African-American poet and national organizer for
the NAACP, reflects on the reasons we sing. Opening with
an optional violin solo and enhanced by a flowing piano part,
the piece begins as a slow, pulsing ballad in minor which
transitions to a major key, upbeat ending.
