Text from Luke 2:7, Matthew 8:20, 2 Corinthians 8:9, and Philippians 2:6
The haunting melody of this a cappella Christmas work is harmonized in the Dorian mode and captures the irony of the Son of Man having no place to lay his head. “No Room” has a spiritual-like quality, yet the modal tonalities and occasional jazz chords give it a unique, almost ethereal feel. Seamless, chilling, and very moving.
