The lyrics to Uphill signify our lives as a journey, with the final resting place as the “inn” which awaits us at the end of our paths. Darkness will not prevent us from finding the “inn” if we follow the path, despite the weariness of travel. Life is therefore an uphill journey, as well as a safe shelter to rest from life’s hardships is prepared and ready at the end of the road. -Melissa Keylock
 
This reassuring Christina Rossetti text, which is actually a metaphor for life itself, has been set for two part treble voices and piano. Originally written for middle school voices, the choral writing is approachable and the piano part expansive and sonorous. Duration: 3:20
The "Downloadable Accompaniment Tracks 1-50 singers" bundle contains a part dominant track for each voice part, a balanced voices track, and an accompaniment track if the work is not a cappella (the accompaniment is also included with the part dominant and balanced voices track). Part dominant tracks are the perfect place to start as the highlighted part is dominant with the other parts in the background for reference. The balanced voices track give a full choir balanced volume mix to allow musicians to hear a piece of music as a full performance. The accompaniment track offers the perfect way to practice singing independently and they can even be used in full choir rehearsals or even school performances. Each bundle is licensed to be used by up to 50 users. Please adjust the quantity accordingly if you have more than 50 users.
