This arrangement of Go Down Moses begins slowly and solemnly, then quickly ramps up into a fast boogie woogie swing that is an absolute blast to play. Experienced pianists will love the swinging rhythms, syncopation, exciting chord harmonies, and rapid blues scales in this performance showstopper.
This intermediate arrangement is for pianists who love a big, fast sound! It begins with a dramatic feel, a bold RH bass melody in F minor supported by deep open octaves in LH. Open octaves and fifths continue throughout, with sporadic chord harmonies and contemporary progressions to balance the fast-moving melody. The climax builds in intensity to a rising key change before settling mysteriously into a deep, somber finish. This arrangement makes a flashy Holiday performance showpiece.
