10 Mar I’ve Been in the Storm So Long
A simple, soulful spiritual with two voices. The melody is in the higher voice throughout so I didn’t include another track of that voice alone.
Composer & Copyright
Traditional. In the public domain. This arrangement is based upon an arrangement by Ysaye Barnwell, found in her vocal method book, Singing in the African American Tradition.

Hi, Lisa — This song is not in either of Ysaye Barnwell’s books. Did you perhaps learn it at a workshop of hers or elsewhere?
