Erie Canal
From Plank Road Publishing
arr. Paul JenningsA number of songs grew out of the folklore surrounding life and work on the canals in the 19th century. "Erie Canal" is probably the best known of these songs, though it was popular at the turn of the 20th century, well after the heyday of the canals. We have arranged it for unison voices, using a rollicking, sometimes bluesy folk style. To accentuate this in the recording, we have combined acoustic bass, guitars, dobro, and the talents of our intrepid harmonica soloist. (from Music K-8, Vol. 15, No. 3)
