for SATB unaccompanied This vibrant setting of Isaiah 9:6 draws on the rhythms and textures of modern Nigerian art music. The predominantly homophonic texture is interspersed with solo lines,
in a setting full of dynamic contrast. Originally published in World Carols for Choirs: 31 carols for mixed voices
Christmas
- 'Cumulatively, the repetitions, the incrementally rising pitch, the call and response patterns, the thickening harmonies - all allied to strong, foot-nudging rhythms - generate a glorious
effect...' -Choir & Organ, November/December 07
- 'Once the syncopations and, for those who decide to rise to the challenge of essaying the piece in the original Igbo language, the
articulation of the words have been mastered, this is a straightforward piece . . . Thrilling in almost any acoustic, so long as the choir is large enough to suit it, this would be an unusual and
exciting addition to a more conventionally Western Christmas.' -The Organ, November 07
