Since it was first published in 1976, Jack Noble White's FIRST SONG OF ISAIAH has been sung by millions of people worldwide. Now we commemorate the 20th anniversary of this phenomenal anthem with a new FESTIVAL EDITION! Replacing the original piano, bass and drums with organ, brass quartet, timpani and handbells, the FESTIVAL EDITION also adds an extended choral and instrumental introduction, suitable for procession, as well as a Coda. The composer has added notes outlining various performance options. For festival or general use. (Editor's Note: THE FIRST SONG OF ISAIAH (Festival Edition) is compatible with the 1976 edition.)
