Wade in the Water is a lively and infectious spiritual. Its features include a call-and-response texture, jazz ‚scat' vocalization and finger clicks on beats 2 and 4 of the measure. This arrangement by Joanna Forbes L'Estrange remains true to the spirit of Eva Cassidy's well-loved version, adapting the instrumental improvisation on the recording to create a fun scat section. Listen to Eva Cassidy's version and aim for the same passion and commitment, allowing the voices as much freedom of expression as is possible in a choral texture.
