Press Reviews
`A marvellous gospel-funky type of piece, which has an `in your face,' aggressive style throughout, but is nonetheless most enjoyable. Contrasts are provided more by the different voicings within the choir than by dynamics, although a full tone is required more or less throughout. What makes it for me is the superb piano accompaniment by Jennifer Greene. A confident choir is needed here, with the ability to be flexible with the rhythms and syncopations which abound, not to mention the odd swoops in the vocal line. An exciting piece.'

"I'm 13 and I'm in Cantabile Youth Singers in the Bay Area in California. I loved this song when we performed it! We liked it so much we performed it in our tour of Russia, Estonia and Finland. Every part had chances to really give everything and it was just an inspirational, fun song that really lets you connect with the audience and each other!"
