2-part choir and piano

Composed by Douglas E. Wagner. Choral. Octavo. Heritage Music Press #15/3735H. Published by Heritage Music Press (LO.15-3735H).

ISBN 9780787768294.

Doug Wagner’s arrangement of three well-known spirituals will be easily learned by singers with developing voices. Creative piano parts set the mood for each title and provide ample support for singers. Each spiritual--“Oh, Won’t You Sit Down?,” “Deep River with All Night, All Day,” and “He’s Got the Whole World In His Hands”--may be performed separately or combined as a suite. With a light jazz style for the opening and closing titles and the middle title presented as a moderate tempo ballad, it’s fun to rehearse and a great budget stretcher! Also available in three-part mixed.

A folk-infused ballad celebrating the miracle of Hanukkah. Originally recorded by 90s pop sensation Lisa Loeb, this reflective change-of-pace choral features a rhythmic yet mellow accompaniment and straightforward but expressive vocal parts. Whether you perform with the guitar-inspired piano part, the optional SoundTrax CD, or a folk ensemble of your own, this is truly a special touch for holiday concerts.

Because of changes in our school's schedule and the taking away of the music requirement in 7th and 8th grade, our choir numbers have dropped significantly. Searching for music that has educational value and that the choir will sound good on (we know that's important for the parents and faculty) I came across Light arranged by Andy Beck. This quickly became a favorite of my choir! The kids are excited to rehearse it every day and the sound they are achieving fits the folk-like feel of the piece.

We are using the 2-Part version. Being 7th and 8th graders, of my nine boys, three are unchanged voices (singing alto as written) and my other six are in varying stages of voice change. Those six are bouncing back and forth between alto and soprano parts, singing them down an octave.

Thank you for providing a great piece for the holiday season!
