Programme Note

A punchy SSAA version of this great psalm. Some crunchy note clusters and speedy sections contrasted with lyrical and murmuring moments. A fanfare-like triumphant opening section, giving way to a smoother gentler passage. These two sections are repeated but with different words and musical variations. The fanfare type passage concludes the piece. The piano accompaniment is energetic and needs rhythmic precision.
