A City Called Heaven
The traditional text of this powerful spiritual is set to a new tune in this innovative arrangement which combines 4/4 and 12/8 meters. Feelings of great longing and desperation in the text are expressed through the tonality and tempo. The polyphonic writing at the close of the work is expertly crafted and reflects how the spiritual might have naturally been sung in its day - each line coming out of what was heard before.
