Singer, Choir Wow with ‘Hallelujah’ Bringing House Down
Shona McGarty’s rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” is one such gem, a performance that transcends the usual, inviting us into an emotionally charged experience that lingers long after the song ends.
The magic of McGarty’s performance lies in her journey through the complex tapestry of emotions that “Hallelujah” weaves—faith, doubt, love, and redemption.
Her voice explores the “secret chord” that Cohen spoke of, bringing to the forefront the spiritual and existential musings that pulse through the song’s veins.
The way the chorus comes in around her, harmonizing with her so beautifully, adds even more power to the performance.
