Sing Songs of Joy for SATB and Chamber Orchestra
Duration - 14:06
This piece is an arrangement of the P.D. carols, Sing Lullaby & Good King Wenceslas, bookended by original scoring, where the word ALLELUIA is used no less than 21 times. The harmonic language could be described as tonal contemporary cinematic and the rhythmic aspects are jazz infused based on the other half of my experience. The work is filled with counterpoint and the sum of many musical roads, (classical, dramatic, jazz and rock). Commissioned by the Sierra Master Chorale and director, Ken Hardin.
