This video concludes my "Richard Elliott Trilogy," the first two being "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" and "I Saw Three Ships."

This setting of "Go, Tell It on the Mountain" by Richard Elliott presented a unique set of challenges both in performance and production of this video. Dr. Elliott knows how to please a crowd, and that's exactly what he did at the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's Christmas Concert in 2008. I've been told he brought down the house all three nights.

The piece gets off to a jazzy start with finger snaps and both feet in the pedal. (With some tricky thirds in the right foot!) The piece concludes with an over-the-top jazzy finish. This style worked so well that Dr. Elliott arranged another spiritual, "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," using the same formula. I have posted my own performance of this piece. It can be found in the sidebar or on my profile page.
