Have You Seen the Baby?Ruth Morris
Gray. Here is the a cappella Christmas spiritual
of the year! A descending bass line forms a firm
foundation in the opening section, then there's
trading off between the girls and the guys, then
a vocal stack builds in the middle, followed by a
soaring descant that takes the final refrain up a
notch! Highly recommended!

the Light. Good-bye to darkness, good-bye to night!

seasonal spiritual accessible to choirs of all sizes

Go Where I Send Thee—arr. Paul Caldwell & Sean Ivory. If you have
a very talented choir looking for a challenge, this is an absolutely "must do"
spiritual! Written for either SSA or SATB, both the piano accompaniment and
vocal parts are in the authentic African-American folk tradition. The use of the
many variants of the text allows the music to maximize the use of gospel-style
modulations and to give the singers significant one-line reminders of some of
the biblical stories on which the African-American musical tradition is based.
