Born, Born In Bethlehem

Description

Voice 1, Voice 2, Piano — The accompaniment sets up the rhythmic drive. Sing with excitement and rhythmic accuracy. An occasional slide into certain pitches will add authenticity to the style. However, don't sacrifice in-tuneness. Choose well your places to slide. Use the various dynamic levels to create interest and to heighten intensity. This work builds to a wonderful ending. Sing strongly and keep listening so your blend and balance remain intact throughout the last eight measures. Your audience will enjoy this one. This stirring setting of the Christmas spiritual Mary Had A Baby includes a driving bass and catchy rhythms in the keyboard accompaniment. Spirited syncopations and an optional tambourine maintain interest throughout the piece as the work rises to a climactic ending. This makes you feel good all over!
