For “Children Go Where I Send Thee,” the stage was transformed into a starry night sky, perfectly aligning with the song’s theme of guiding the future. The addition of the drum added an authentic element of African American culture, and the steady rhythm throughout the piece had me dancing along with the choir. I particularly enjoyed watching their synchronized movements and choreography, especially the moments when each section was highlighted with different verses and dance moves.
A standout moment for me was the rap segment. Not only was it executed exceptionally well, but it was also a pleasant surprise that spiced up the song. They ended the song with a sudden change in pace allowing the audience to resonate with the lyrics. The crowd’s enthusiastic response afterward was a testament to the performance's success.
