Comments by Captain Leonard Ballantine :
The melody Shenandoah is one of those exquisite folk expressions which begs to be treated simply. Its sheer beauty of line and character makes it the perfect choice for marriage to the sensitive lyric of John Oxenham’s masterful ‘Mid all the traffic of the ways. In preparation, it is hoped that leaders will consult the song for personal insight, and in turn, share the timeless images with the musicians. Balance, blend, tuning and careful observance of dynamics will help achieve the desired serenity.
'Mid all the Traffic, arranged by Leonard Ballantine, is available on the CD 'Fever Fantasy!' by Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band, conducted by John Hinckley.
