(8) Jericho
Jericho is a medium fast swing arrangement of the tradition Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho. The mini-fugue after the solo section is especially interesting. Like other tunes in Collection 2 it utilizes triplet notation and detailed articulations for young players to achieve correct style, all addressed in the Preparatory Exercises.
