Product Description

This arrangement of "Shenandoah" is inspired by Tennessee Ernie Fords 1961 rendition, which gave this traditional American folk song a deep and emotional character. The original recording featured rich orchestral instrumentation and a free, unmeasured vocal style. However, in this arrangement, I have adapted the piece to follow a defined rhythmic structure, making it more accessible for study and performance. Additionally, the music begins directly with the main melody, without an instrumental introduction.

The Soprano Saxophone is a transposing instrument in the key of Bb, meaning it sounds a major second (a whole step) lower than written. Therefore, when the sheet music is written in C, the Soprano Saxophone plays it in Bb, a whole step below the written pitch. This arrangement has been adapted to suit the transposition, ensuring that the correct pitch is heard when performed.

Whats included in this sheet music:
Solo arrangement for Soprano Saxophone
Inspired by Tennessee Ernie Fords 1961 version
Written in a comfortable range for the instrument
Simplified arrangement for students and performers
Starts directly with the main melody, no instrumental intro
Clear and accessible notation for beginner and intermediate musicians
