Opening with a celebratory choral fanfare and then moving into the main thematic material of this anthem praising the many gifts of music, this accessible work will be a wonderful selection for men's honor choirs and festival performances. The contrasting rubato middle section transitions into a return of the opening material and a confident, glorious conclusion.
Set in a gentle pop/rock style, this accessible piece reflects the culmination of an important time of life, like the end of the school year, graduation, or a time of transition or change. Building to a full chorus, the positive message of the text encourages us to enjoy and celebrate this time and to “look how far we have come,” while facing the future with courage, hope and anticipation. The soaring descant in Part I builds to a wonderful finale! Available separately: 3-Part Mixed, VoiceTrax CD. Duration: ca. 2:50.
