Light in the night

Light in the night

Description

It was a night like any other night. There was nothing to indicate that anything special was about to happen, until the darkness was filled with a heavenly light and the song of praise was heard. And so this night became a holy night. We join the angelic choir and together bring praise, honor and worship to the King of Kings. A beautiful gospel arrangement of this great song! Christmas: All creation stood amazed at the glory of this child. He was born to take away our sins. Fall on your knees and listen to the song of the angels as it resounds in the holy night.

Review in Vocaal June 2022:
The song Oh Holy Night is a true Christmas classic. A song that ensures recognition by both the singers and the listeners. But Paul Wright and Lisa Shipman surprise the listener with their performance, for which Bradley Knight wrote a beautiful choir arrangement. The song starts as a beautiful ballad with a tenor, after which the choir takes over the unison of the soloist. After a modulation, an alto soloist takes over the song and brings the song towards a large four-part chorus. As a listener, you are wonderfully sucked into the song. You feel the build-up towards a long bridge with an a capella choir where the different voices make the O Holy Night sound like an echo. Just when you as a listener understand what is happening, the song suddenly turns completely around and it sounds 'Fall On Your Knees, O hear the angels voices', after which the song continues with a kind of free-worship and the song works towards the great apotheosis.

Not the easiest song to sing. You need two good soloists, but for the (gospel) choir that likes a vocal challenge, an absolute addition to the Christmas repertoire and a beautiful gift for the audience during your Christmas concert. The song can be ordered via koormuziek.nl and if you as a choir do not have a band or pianist, there is also an accompaniment track of the song available.
