Driving energy and rhythmic excitement as the shepherds rush to the stable, running and dancing all the way! “Awake! Sing Gloria!”, from the cantata, Canticle of Joy, is alive with electricity and an urgency tosee the newborn King. “Sleepers awake! Sing gloria!” What a sight that must have been! Perhaps it is hard for us to visualize that incredible scene, but we can certainly hear it in this outstanding choral!
