The upbeat gospel-flavored anthem 'Rock-a My Saviour' is a real treat. With a quiet energy, it soon builds to a celebrative song of praise. Beginning with a basic melodic pattern from the men, the other voices join for a rich and spirited anthem with a hushed conclusion. The original a cappella Christmas spiritual 'Run To The Manger' is packed with rhythmic vitality and inspiring lyrics. Features a great hook and call-and-response solos. The master of the African American spiritual Moses Hogan creates a glorious arrangement of 'Glory, Glory, Glory to the Newborn King', and adds his own words and music, based on the spiritual 'Go Tell It On The Mountain'. Selected for the Paul A. Smith Choral Series, 'See Dat Babe' features excellent writing for the a cappella choir, with all the rhythm and vigor to bring the house down.
