CGA1053 He Comes!
Description
Suitable for choirs of all ages, this unique Palm Sunday anthem captures the euphoric mood of that first Palm Sunday. Anticipation builds as a soloist introduces a recurring melodic theme that's echoed by a small ensemble and finally by the entire choir singing in three-part round. The accented, steady beat of the accompaniment brings a fitting theatrical quality to the piece while also making it a terrific processional anthem. Be sure and listen for the donkey bray in the accompaniment! Sound file: ms. 34-end
Voicing: Three part (any combination of voices) and 5 octaves handbells, or keyboard
Composer: Michael Jothen
Text: Michael Jothen
Lectionary: Palm Sunday
