CGE268 I Sing - Two-part
Description
A memorable, pentatonic setting of selected lines from "The Gift to Sing" by James Weldon Johnson that speaks to the heart of all who find comfort and hope in song. Choirs, audiences and directors can all relate to the fact that there are times in life when "blackening clouds" seem to surround us. But the soaring melodic refrain reminds us that the "magic way to turn the gloom to day" is to "sing and sing and sing." The accompaniment swells with wave-like motion under vocal lines that capture the joyful flight of hearts that take wing when we sing.
