Product Description

This arrangement of Shenandoah has been adapted for Alto Saxophone in Eb and captures the beauty of this American folk song. The version that inspired this arrangement was recorded in 1961 by Tennessee Ernie Ford, featuring a free-flowing vocal delivery with no fixed tempo and minimal instrumental accompaniment, allowing for deep emotional expression.

The alto saxophone is a transposing instrument in Eb, meaning that when reading a C on the sheet music, it sounds as an Eb in concert pitch. Because of this, music for alto sax is usually written a major sixth above the concert key to ensure correct harmonization with other instruments.

This arrangement stays true to the spirit of the song while adapting it to a structured rhythmic format, making it more accessible for solo performance and accompaniment. Unlike the 1961 recording, which featured a free-tempo vocal performance, this version includes a steady tempo while preserving the expressive, lyrical nature of the melody.

What you will find in this arrangement:
Arrangement for Alto Saxophone in Eb
Inspired by Tennessee Ernie Fords 1961 version
Structured rhythmic format for easier performance
Easy-to-read notation, suitable for intermediate players
Melody starts directly with the vocal line, no instrumental introduction
Perfect for solo practice, performances, and ensemble settings

Download now and bring to life the heartfelt beauty of Shenandoah with this expressive and structured arrangement!
