In Dat Great Giddin' Up Mo'nin

Rosephanye Powell delivers a breath of fresh air to all she touches.  This classic spiritual has donned some new harmonic clothes, and they do sparkle and shine.  She begins quietly but with energy.  Snatching motifs from the melody, Ms. Powell creates rhythmic ostinato patterns that inject a driving fervor to the arrangement.  This is a piece worth getting up in the morning to sing and hear.
