- Although the singing will use a handout, opening and closing songs will be sung from the 1991 Denson Sacred Harp.
The Revision-Music Committee is pleased to announce this special European revision singing for 2024. Finalist songs from more than 1,100 submitted songs will be sung and recorded in these sessions. We expect to sing about 80 finalist songs in each session (notes and words) for a total of approximately 160. The committee will use these sessions and recordings to make final decisions on which songs will be added to the book.
