Stephen Foster
In E♭ major, range E♭2 to E♭4
Far from home, someone remembers the Swanee River and the old folks who still live there, and the whole world seems sad and weary. Stephen Foster wrote it in 1851 without ever having seen the river; he picked the name Swanee from a map. The piano part is from the American songbook Heart Songs (1909).
