Rosephanye Powell : Great Is the Lord

Everything you would expect from Rosephanye and more is in this great piece. A brilliant fanfare opener followed by an energetic and rhythmic chorus, a contrasting slow middle section that is lush and melodic, a building sequence segment starting with one voice part and adding until all are in, and finally a return to the rhythmic chorus with a satisfying finish. One of the unique features in Rosephanye's writing is that her music works as a church anthem or as a school concert piece, frequently in festivals, too. Medium difficulty.

Rosephanye Powell : Wade in the Water

Rosephanye Powell exploded onto the choral market scene with "The Word Was God", and has had a following ever since. This a cappella setting uses divided vocal parts and a rhythmic playfulness that captures a fresh spirit. Her gift is to create music that sounds complex, but is solid for the singers to grasp.
