Nick,
The Hallelujah included in this segment is:
"The Hallelujah Variation" from Goldberg Variations: Aria and 70 Variations Adapted (Winter & Winter). Composed by Bach, arranged and composed by Uri Caine.
For any listeners who are curious about the music in this piece, you'll see a tab called "Music" up above. You can select this tab and see a complete list of the music included in the segment.
Best wishes and thank you for listening!

Paused for a moment, and I missed the name of the gospel-inflected selection that was played in this segment - something around Hallelujah..?
Can anyone post the identity of that piece? Thanks!
Also, a suggestion for listeners... try the Goldberg Variations on harpsichord, closer to the original conception of Bach...
Simone Dinnerstein's "Goldberg Variations" is one of my two favorite classical recordings. A brilliant musician.
