A slightly beefed up final cadence makes this perfect for open-air venues or sports events where the last moments of ‘the anthem’ are often lost or drowned by an exuberant crowd of spectators.
An effective setting which never oversteps its role in bringing simple truths alive. Lots of unison and straight forward part writing for an easy teach with effective results.
A sensitive and effective treatment of this lovely old gospel favourite. Lots of unison and easy two-part writing in the verses make this setting accessible for most choirs.
Definitely theatrical, almost Broadway in feel, requiring the vocalist to change character at a moment’s notice. An unusual approach, but offers high impact if the occasion warrants.
The biblical theme of ‘light’ is explored in this energetic gospel anthem. Once the word rhythms of the text are conquered it all falls into place beautifully.
