Sing to the Lord!

Effervescent with joy and celebration, this fresh setting of Psalm 96 brings an ideal mixture of contemporary and traditional into the choir loft. Leaping confidently, the opening theme arches upward, ignited by rhythmic syncopations and a spacious harmonic vocabulary. A reverent middle section brings a lyrical element into the anthem and offers an opportunity for some interpretive shaping of the phrases. The composition returns to the jubilation of the opening and powers ahead to a final shout of worship. Glorious!
