for SATB unaccompanied or with percussion This energetic and highly rhythmic arrangement of a 15th- century carol uses a folksy call-and-response style, which helps the piece maintain its momentum right through to its thrilling fortissimo conclusion.

Recenzje

In his Angel Alleluias Alan Bullard captures the rhythmic vitality and the harmonic idiosyncrasies of much contemporary African song. This is not a difficult piece, and it will be very effective in performance.
