This charming fiddling song from the southern mountains of Appalachia is engaging and humorous, featuring progressive use of intervals in harmonic structure (unison, thirds, and fourths, fifths), antiphonal singing between womenand men, and a brief piano solo. The accompaniment captures the rhythmic feel of a country fiddle, and the boisterous excitement of a hoedown is both heard and felt in the harmonic refrain '...Hey ho,dee-iddle-um-day!' Treat your choir and your audience to a journey up Sourwood Mountain.
