SKU: GI.G-006440

Composed by Robert W Schaefer. Eastertide, Easter. Sacred. Octavo. With guitar chord names. 8 pages. GIA Publications #006440. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-006440).

This contemplative setting of Psalm 118 is one of Bob’s final compositions before his untimely passing in 2018. His well-conceived writing for choir and assembly always featured finely crafted singable tunes and harmonies. The refrain’s simple melody, utilizing chord tones of the harmonic structure, makes this easy for the assembly to join in almost at first hearing. The verses are set in a question-and-answer dialog between cantor and choir. More vocal forces are added with each stanza, bringing a richness to the overall sound and effect highlighting the words of this lovely composition.
