Whisper! Whisper!

Music by Jay Althouse

Another memorable Christmas spiritual from Jay Althouse.

A lush middle section contrasts with the rhythmic excitement of the opening theme. Brief, easy solos for both a male and female singer.

Jay Althouse : Christmas Spirituals for Mixed Choirs Vol. 1

This exciting original Christmas spiritual, "Goin' To Bethlehem," by Jay Althouse opens with the men stating the rhythmic theme, followed by the middle voices and finally the sopranos.

Is everything you have come to love and expect from a Jay Althouse Christmas spiritual, and a whole lot more. Lively and quick lyrics, solid rhythmic hooks, and refreshing parallel chords fill every phrase, followed by melodic riffs from the men's section. A contrasting middle section gently holds back before the A section returns including a well-written modulation and rousing descant over the final flourish. A great addition to your choral library.
