Upbeat and dramatic, an optional timpani joins the piano to add to the rhythmic drive of this outstanding piece. The traditional Sanctus text leads to aleatoric treatment of ”Praise God” in several languages, accompanied by the baritones in unison singing the “Old Hundredth” melody, that text in English: “From all that dwell below the skies, Let songs of hope and faith arise, Let peace, goodwill on earth be sung, Through every land on every tongue.” A recapitulation of the rhythmic Sanctus concludes the piece.
