Review:
“Sweet Music” is a hidden gem in the genre of African-American spirituals. This setting by Russell Schulz-Widmar, with the words “Go and tell everybody Jesus Christ is risen!” is a fitting selection for Eastertide. Arranged in G Major and written for SATB voices, "Sweet Music" can be sung a cappella or accompanied by a simple, transparent accompaniment for only 7 handbells. Measures total 59.
