Crossing The Sweetwater


Song:  Crossing The Sweetwater

Flute:  Jeannine Goeckeritz

Harp:  Tamara Oswald

Arranged by:  Sam Cardon



I love this song.

It is such a beautiful composition...
and it is so beautifully played.

This transcription is how the song sounds when played on the Concert Flute.

When played on the Bass Flute...
it comes out one octave lower.

If you are playing the Bass Flute...
and you wish it to be at the same pitch...
just play it one octave higher.

I actually like playing this song one octave lower.


After listening carefully to the song...
I decided to let my elder sister come up with the piano portion.

The harp is often played with two hands playing different notes at the same time...
as is with the piano.

I tried to write it out for just one hand play...
on the piano portion...
but it just didn't sound right.

So...
once my sister writes out her portion...
I will then publish it.

In the meantime...
I am off to search for another song with which to transcribe.
