Good Folk songs/spirituals for low voice?

intelligenttooth · 01-05-2010, 02:36 AM

I've been told that my voice is on the low side, but I don't know of many "low" songs I can sing. Anyone know of good folk songs or spirituals that show off a low voice? Thanks!

You might want to try Ol' Man River. I know Paul Robeson did a great version, but I also came across this cover I really like:

Hope that helps!

Just about anything can be transposed fairly well to a lower register, but some songs that stick out in my mind are:

Swing low Sweet Chariot
Go Down Moses
Children Go where I send thee
Will the Circle be Unbroken?
