Works for a cappella chorus Rockefeller Chapel Choir This recording represents a brief glimpse of choral music that celebrates the human response to God, both in sorrow and in joy. We desire music that can lift us up, help us to reflect on the great stories found in the Bible and touch the innermost parts f our soul and spirit. The timeless expressions of sorrow found in the sighing and weeping over a people held in captivity and David's cry of grief after hearing Absalom was slain, the steadfastness found in the psalms and the ecstatic joy of resurrection help our mind and emotions to grow. Compassion, love, understanding and selfless concern come from experiencing emotions that transcend particular cultures and specific religions. We come together as hopeful people as we sing and hear music that surpasses traditional boundaries. --Randi von Ellefson Psalm 23
