Marching Through Georgia

Henry Clay Work

For bass trombone and piano

In A♭ major, range C3 to E♭4

Union soldiers sing as they march from Atlanta to the sea, bringing freedom to the enslaved people along the way: hurrah, hurrah, we bring the jubilee. Henry Clay Work wrote it in 1865, at the end of the American Civil War; the piano part is from the American songbook Heart Songs (1909).
