Unknown Anonymus : O Happy Day
The song O Happy Day is characterized by a clear call-and-response structure, in which the solo voice is taken up motivically by the choir's responses, creating a rousing rhythmic tension. Also noteworthy is the deliberate use of syncopated accents in the accompanying instruments, which reinforce the typical gospel pulse without overlaying the melodic line.
