Here is an exuberant celebration of the birth of Christ through layered African polyrhythms and call-and-response vocal phrases. The singers encourage the audience to rejoice, shout and clap with them, making this selection a wonderful processional or concert opener. Percussion, Yoruba translation and pronunciation are included. Duration: ca. 2:45. Recorded by Baltimore Choral Arts Society, Tom Hall, conductor, courtesy Gothic Records. |
