For a festival gathering of singers, this would be an amazing choice. After a neoclassic introduction, the main theme sounds with sacred vigor. Pure energy carries the sequential tune through a series of praiseworthy acclamations, O praise the Lord, all nations. Praise the Lord, all people. A contrasting middle section featuring Tallis' Canon is a delightful surprise, bringing texture and a noble quality to crown this fine work. Joyful!
