accompaniment provides the foundation for

were reaching upward toward heaven.

Trinity Song—Katie Wills. Appropriate for
Holy Trinity, this melodious, poetic title can

creation, praise, and unity. Its joyous refrain
is easily learned. The four verses, which

and full harmony.

We Thank Thee, Lord—Mack Wilberg. This
anthem is lyrical, sweeping, and full of rich
harmonies. With a text by David Warner that
includes the repeated phrase, "We thank
thee, Lord," this piece is a gentle but stirring
prayer of gratitude. The texture builds from
unison lower voices to four-part homophony
before reducing to whole-choir unison for
the final phrase. The orchestral scores are

about dementia by Mary Louise Bringle and
the flowing and tender melody by Jayne
Southwick Cool, Eric Nelson has created
something deep, rich and thoughtful. The
piano accompaniment is supportive yet
simple and light, allowing the text and elegant
choral writing to be always at the fore. Men

nuanced. A much-needed ministry tool.

MAJOR
WORKS
Missa Brevis—
John Rutter. This superb
Latin Mass setting for choir
and organ demonstrates
Rutter's strong melodic sense and innate feeling for choral sound. The
atmospheric Kyrie leads to a Gloria that contrasts vibrantly rhythmic
passages with smooth expressive sections. The mysterious harmonies
of the Sanctus pave the way for a tender Benedictus, and the Agnus
Dei is a haunting and powerful prayer for peace.
