About This Song
About "Shenandoah (Arr. M. Bartholomew and J. Erb)" by Chanticleer
Bartholomew and Erb's setting stretches the river ballad across a wide harmonic horizon. Chanticleer's voices drift like mist over the water, homesickness rendered in suspended chords. The calm surface belies a current of longingβevery phrase a farewell that lingers.
