General Information
Title: All the Little Angels
Composer: Maggie Furtak
Lyricist: Maggie Furtak
Number of voices: 4vv Voicing: SATB
Genre: Sacred, Anthem
Language: English
Instruments: A cappella
First published: 2023
Description: A work for SATB voices, preferably a cappella, but a piano reduction is included. The text refers to angels and heaven, but not specifically to God or Jesus, so this could be appropriate for a more secular event. Aside from the occasional extra harmony note, the parts are undivided throughout, so this could be performed by a quartet.

They rise up to heaven a-playin' drums: pots and pans and kitchen tongs.

All the little angels rise. Tell me how they rise.
They rise up to heaven with their jammies on, rosy toes and then they’re gone.
