Additional info/contents	The "Southern Harmony", published by William "Singin' Billy" Walker in 1835, is one of the most influential collections of religious and folk songs in American music history. It reflects the musical preferences and cultural trends of the early 19th century in the Southern United States. The composer has attempted to preserve the flavor of the original vocal works in a version that fully exploits the potential of the wind ensemble and the individual characteristics of each song.
