.The Gift to Sing, for SATB choir and piano (or strings), is a setting of the poem by James Weldon Johnson, the American writer, poet, and civil rights activist. It tells us that whatever troubles life might bring, singing will turn the gloom to cheerful day'. This song similarly turns, from a sombre minor to a joyful major, finally evaporating into the distance.
The Gift to Sing is a movement from Alan Bullard's cantata Endless Song, for SATB choir and strings (quartet, quintet, or orchestra), or piano (Colne Edition CE76).
Alan Bullard's choral music is performed and broadcast world-wide, and is in the repertoire of many choirs. He has a reputation for music that choirs enjoy performing, and which speaks directly to audiences.
