John Henry - 2010 TMEA Texas All-State Mixed Choir

The 2010 Texas High School All-State Choir sings this American Folk Song arranged by John D. Miller. Accompanied by members of the SMU Meadows Symphony Orchestra and directed by the amazing Dr. Kenneth Davis of St. Johns College in Santa Fe, NM. This was the final piece of the concert and a huge departure from the more classical works performed earlier. A great fun contrast.

This song and it's harmonies required a lot of "indepence". Lol

i was at the convention for the college all-state choir. i walked in a rehearsal and you guys just started this song. THE SOUL!!!! i felt as if Mr. Henry was there himself. and with the orchestra its pure perfection.
