Sing my soul, sing my heart. Sing for peace, sing for joy.                                        There is so much love here, yes! Kuimba Nafsi Yangu is a celebratory song derived from common Swahili phrases for joy. Intended as a concert opener, this spirited piece is pure energy from start to finish. The piano and djembes drive the momentum forward while the choir sings in call and response. Each section gets a chance to shine, all while building with anticipation to the final note and stomp. Accents/articulations, vocal inflections, and three part chords call for vocal flexibility, rhythmic intensity, and movement from the singers. If desired, mm. 3 and 4 may serve as a vamp, while the performers enter from around the auditorium to take the stage.PronunciationKuimba nafsi yangu,                                                                                                        [Koo-eehm-bah nahf-see yahn-goo,]                                                                Kuimba moyo wangu.                                                                                                     [Koo-eehm-bah moh-yoh wahn-goo.]                                                             Kuimba kwa amani,                                                                                                         [Koo-eehm-bah kwah ah-mah-nee,]                                                                  kuimba kwa furaha.                                                                                                         [Koo-eehm-bah kwah foo-rah-ha.]                                                                         Sana upendo, sana mpenzi wangu.                                                                           [Sah-nah oo-pehn-doh, sah-nah mmpehn-zee-wahn-goo.]                         Na wewe.

SKU: GI.G-CD-730

Composed by Jan Michael Joncas. Sacred. CD. GIA Publications #730. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-CD-730).

At long last, GIA proudly releases Michael Joncas’s first collection in over eight years. Containing themes of divine providence, rescue, and sustenance, this recording comes from the heart of Joncas’s own suffering due to a bout with Guillain-Barré syndrome. After his recovery, Joncas experienced a new surge of musical creativity that gave birth to In the Sight of the Angels. The lush sounds of choral singing and the elaborate instrumentation of brass, harp, flute, organ, and other instruments makes In the Sight of the Angels a beautiful recording replete with psalm settings, including “Drink in the Richness of God,” “In the Sight of the Angels,” and “Till the End of My Days.” Also present are settings of the three New Testament Lukan infancy canticles—the “Canticle of Zechariah,” the “Canticle of Mary,” and the “Canticle of Simeon.” But, perhaps most appropriate in light of Joncas’s recent experiences are the songs delineating the work of the Holy Spirit, God’s breath (ruach): “All Who Are Led by the Spirit,” “Lord, Send Out Your Spirit,” and “Veni, Sancte Spiritus.” This tranquil recording has a pastoral feel. It is tender and depicts a merciful God who gives us hope in light of suffering. Joncas’s newfound wisdom resonates through this music. It is his sincere wish that those who sing it, play it, and/or hear it will grow closer to God.
