Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
Performed by Linda Teasley, Soparano, and Tom Teasley, Frame drum
Soprano Linda Teasley sings along with a large frame drum on this American spiritual
Percussionist Tom Teasley provides a danceable rhythm and a pitch (and a few shouts!) from a frame drum. You can hear the tone of the frame drum frame drum has a home pitch of its own. Tom Teasley produces 'shouts' by running a finger along the skin, in the same way a glass makes a pitch by running a finger on the edge.
This location is the lovely St. John's Union Church in Creagerstown, MD.
