The 'old slave song' that forms the basis of the work is introduced with text as a final chorus, with a baritone soloist who sings with the chorus. In common with other large-scale Delius works with extra-musical associations, the composer gave an initial explanatory note which was omitted from later printed editions of the score: 'Appalachia is the old Indian name for North America. The composition mirrors the moods of tropical nature in the great swamps bordering on the Mississippi River, which is so intimately associated with the life of the old negro slave population. Longing melancholy, an intense love of Nature, childlike humour and an innate delight in singing and dancing are still the most characteristic qualities of this race'.</p> </annot> </notesStmt> <classification xml:id="classification_fd029949"> <termList xml:id="termList_b44a02be"> <term xml:id="term_974973a7">Vocal music</term> <term xml:id="term_d3b270f0">Voices and orchestra</term> </termList> </classification> <expressionList xml:id="expressionList_237c962f"> <expression xml:id="expression_100N20084"> <title xml:id="title_37da319f" xml:lang="en"/> <incip xml:id="incip_d44a1ea7"> <graphic label="" target="https://delius.music.ox.ac.uk/incipits/delius/voices_and_orchestra/delius_appalachia_dcw69.png" targettype="lowres" xml:id="graphic_20b903be"/> </incip> <creation xml:id="creation_b2706334"> <date xml:id="date_ad7acd53"/> <geogName xml:id="geogName_08bbe982"/> </creation> <history xml:id="history_e2126f4b"> <p/> </history> <perfMedium analog="marc:048" auth="" xml:id="perfMedium_2cf7dadf"> <instrumentation xml:id="instrumentation_f01c3097"> <instrVoiceGrp code="oa" xml:id="instrVoiceGrp_8b7a262f"> <head xml:id="head_11978b62">Orchestra </head> <instrVoice code="jf" count="3" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_89efe9ae">picc.fl.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="wb" count="3" xml:id="instrVoice_1999bce2">ob.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="wf" count="1" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_82117f19">cor.ingl.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="wc" count="2" xml:id="instrVoice_f1c4c76e">cl.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="wc" count="1" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_4e740b0c">E flat cl.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="wg" count="1" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_ac0f4c21">cl.b.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="wd" count="3" xml:id="instrVoice_40216b7e">fg.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="je" count="1" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_451004dd">cfg.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="ba" count="6" xml:id="instrVoice_977a5890">cor.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="bb" count="3" xml:id="instrVoice_1f9c6192">tr.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="bd" count="3" xml:id="instrVoice_8979fe87">trb.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="be" count="1" xml:id="instrVoice_67feaeab">tb.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="pa" xml:id="instrVoice_0034b3c3">timp.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="jk" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_8f56612b">gr.c.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="jc" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_14c969f8">cym.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="ja" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_d6de27da">trgl.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="ji" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_413a1379">tam.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="jl" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_b1745b1f">s.dr.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="ta" count="2" solo="false" xml:id="instrVoice_3405c36e">arp.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="sn" xml:id="instrVoice_b86edf62">str.</instrVoice> </instrVoiceGrp> <instrVoiceGrp code="ca" xml:id="instrVoiceGrp_277347bc"> <head xml:id="head_baa1bb47">Choir SATB</head> <instrVoice code="va" xml:id="instrVoice_c784052a">S.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="vc" xml:id="instrVoice_ce80b7dd">A.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="vd" xml:id="instrVoice_db935f40">T.</instrVoice> <instrVoice code="vf" xml:id="instrVoice_7aaed9c8">B.</instrVoice> </instrVoiceGrp> <instrVoice code="ve" solo="true" xml:id="instrVoice_801a46ac">Bar.</instrVoice> </instrumentation> </perfMedium> <classification xml:id="classification_cf4389ed"> <termList xml:id="termList_746c038b"> <term xml:id="term_d9858f2d"/> </termList> </classification> <relationList xml:id="relationList_c9336ad5"/> </expression> </expressionList> <relationList xml:id="relationList_e86a6813"> <relation label="Is related to: Appallachia (1896)" rel="isRealizationOf" target="delius_appalachia1896.xml" xml:id="relation_7c2306b6"/> </relationList> </work> </workList> <manifestationList xmlns:m="http://www.music-encoding.org/ns/mei" xml:id="sourceDesc_da0b725b"> <manifestation label="" xml:id="source_100N20021"> <identifier label="" xml:id="identifier_8329cae6"/> <titleStmt xml:id="titleStmt_15604e24"> <title xml:id="title_7cebcdb9">Sketch fragment
