"Oh Happy Day" by the Edwin Hawkins Singers is a groundbreaking gospel classic. Released in 1969, the song features powerful choruses, jubilant harmonies and a rousing, soaring melody.
The lyrics celebrate redemption, joy and personal faith, while the arrangement features dynamic leads, call-and-response elements and an organic church music energy.
The radio-ready recording was instrumental in popularizing modern gospel into the mainstream and influenced numerous artists across genres. Overall, the track remains a joyful expression of hope and communal worship.
The arrangement can be performed as a quintet, as an ensemble in doubles and as a choir in multiples. There are various substitute voices that can be exchanged or added. The audience can participate in the middle section by clapping. This can be extended as desired.
There are 4 editions on the website: Quintets for saxophones, woodwinds, brass and strings.
A little tip: saxophones and brass are in the same key of B flat major, so that the individual parts can be exchanged for a mixed instrumentation.
The arrangements are suitable for performances in church and school or for all kinds of festive and contemplative celebrations and occasions.
