Description
SATB choir with some divisi, a cappella - Medium Difficult
SKU: PL.9919
Composed by David Hurd. Cathedral. Choral, General, Pentecost. Octavo. Paraclete Press #9919. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.9919).This exciting setting of the "Phos Hilaron" employs short phrases that expresses great power. A subtle use of chromaticism aids in underlining the meaning of the text. The work reaches a broad climax at "Worthy are you of endless blessing " and concludes with a strong repetition of the opening material. "A Song of Light" will require a sensitive performance to bring out the expressive qualities of the melodic lines.
