Alleluia!
Elizabeth Campbell

Developing SATB choirs will delight in singing this original work set to that most musical of words, "Alleluia." While the easy piano accompaniment is supportive throughout, it leaves space for the choir to sing "a cappella" style, one brief phrase at a time. Not only is this an excellent teaching piece, but the simple melodic and harmonic ideas are beautifully developed, making it a highly rewarding singing and listening experience for everyone.
