4 Et in Terra PaxVictor C. Johnson. This heartfelt
and poignant setting of the traditional Latin text
"And on earth, peace" features soaring melodies
and rich harmonies. The middle section further
develops the text with borrowed tonality for added
color and harmonic interest before a resolution to
the opening melody once again. Equally appropriate
for school concerts or a worship setting; any time
of the year is a fitting time to present this message.
A helpful pronunciation guide and translation is
included for the Latin text.
