Composed by Gary Penkala. Text: Gott Vater sei gepreisen. Versatile hymn arrangement. Pentecost, Ordination, Easter, Christ the King. Score. Published by CanticaNOVA Publications (C5.3045-S).This stately processional uses an introductory fanfare for two trumpets to set the theme for the feast (intros are included for Pentecost/Confirmation/Ordination, Thanksgiving, Christ the King, and Easter). This is followed by a section for organ and trumpets which can be easily adapted to any length procession. This leads into a three-verse setting of "Sing Praise to Our Creator" to the tune Gott Vater sei gepreisen [verse 1- choir & congregation in unison; verse 2- choir in 2-part counterpoint, congregation joining on refrain; verse 3- choral descant over congregation]. Versatility is a hallmark of Festival Intrada. It can be as short as a three-verse hymn with brief introduction or it can be fully utilized as a nearly 200-measure procession on very solemn occasions.
