Three stanzas of text are set to the hymn tune ELLACOMBE. An introduction quotes snippets of the tune, followed by stanza one for unison congregation with the brass echoing imitatively. The texture changes in stanza two as the French horn takes the foreground in the accompaniment, with the organ supporting the congregation. The final stanza has the trumpets leaping in baroque-like fanfares at first, then the imitative echoes return. Dignified but joyful, this majestic setting will add to your Easter service.
Included Instrumental Parts: Trumpet I and II in C and B-flat, Horn in F, Trombone I and II, Timpani. Organist plays from full score.
