The Sorrentones are an all male group of students from Sacred Heart College in Sorrento, Western Australia. This is an arrangement I did of Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen and was performed at the Rejoyce Choir Concert in may 2011 at the Callaway Auditorium, University of WA.
People from all walks of life suffer from depression or “the black dog”. I wanted to write a song that says “you just swing those blues away” by listening to music or performing music, whether it be singing in a choir or just simply singing or playing away your blues. Music is a very powerful tool and I hope this song helps those who find peace in music. The Performer is a good friend, Lotti Lothian who performs this song on her own album recorded at Hotel Sorrento titled “Feel The Music”
