Sing The Lord, Ye Voices All

"Sing the Lord, Ye Voices All" is a magnificent chorus of praise that calls all of creation to magnify the name of God. Originally from Joseph Haydn's grand oratorio The Creation, this piece is a favorite for Nigerian Catholic choirs preparing for major concerts, feast days, and special choral celebrations. It opens with a stately, majestic call to worship before bursting into a lively and joyful fugue.

For a choir, mastering this piece is a thrilling journey. The transition into the energetic "Messiah's praise for ever shall endure" section requires tight timing and confident entries from every voice part. When the sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses finally weave their lines together into the resounding final "Amen," it creates a powerful moment of triumph that leaves both the singers and the congregation uplifted.
