Subject: Down to the River to Pray From: GUEST,mdgates@uci.edu Date: 11 Apr 01 - 04:05 PM Does anyone know a source (sheet music or songbook) that has the one Allison Krause and the White House, TN choir did in Oh Brother Where Art Thou; Down to the River to Pray? |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: Clinton Hammond Date: 11 Apr 01 - 04:08 PM Is that who that is? Allison Krause? cool... I gotta hit HMV and buy that CD to replace my napster version... Nice tune... sorry I can't help ya with the sheet music... ;-) |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 11 Apr 01 - 04:17 PM I'd love to find it too. I know someone who wrote out an arrangement for her chorus 9Songweavers) to sing. They're performing it next month in Concord, NH. I'll see if I can get it from her, but I think I'll wait till after the concert. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: Murray MacLeod Date: 11 Apr 01 - 04:35 PM Doc Watson does a great version of this (don't know the album, heard him live) and Martin Simpson does an absolutely mind-blowing instrumental version of it. In fact I am listening to his version right now ........ Murray |

Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: GUEST,mdgates@uci.edu Date: 12 Apr 01 - 03:57 PM Thanks to everyone who replied to my request. No one it seems has the tune's melody in the sheet form. I'll ask my mother (a professional piano player all her life) to listen to my CD and write the music out. She has the ear, naturally, to be able to do that. I just hate to impose on her because she hates country music. When I get it I'll repost so if anyone else needs the music I can send to you. I wish I had the gifted ear. |

Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: Nevada Date: 02 Oct 02 - 10:58 AM Hi everyone. On the subject of "O Brother Where Art Thou", does anybody know if the song "Brother Won't You Walk Away" is featured on the sound track? Luv AAA x |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: GUEST,reggie miles Date: 02 Oct 02 - 12:34 PM I caught a piece of this on the television and worked up a version of my own. Sawry I don't know how to write music. I just play by ear. I changed the lyrics some as well and came up with what I think is a nice compromise. Good luck with your efforts. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: GUEST Date: 02 Oct 02 - 12:46 PM Access- nothing with that title on the soundtrack cd. Who sang it? What was it about? May be under another title. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Down to the River to Pray From: Nevada Date: 03 Oct 02 - 04:47 AM Hi Guest. To be honest I dont know much about it. It was written by "The Hooters" but other than that the only band I know that performs it is "The Phil Beer Band", and practicly every other line is "Brother Won't You Walk Away". Luv AAA x |
