Gwyneth Walker. This remarkable new arrangement for SATB chorus and piano focuses on the inherent drama of the text. Each verse expresses a different reaction to its question about the Crucifixion. The piano accompaniment, which plays a featured role in this music, varies with the mood of the lyrics from simple chordal support at the beginning, to harsh rhythms, to rapid "sunburst" patterns, to sorrowful descending lines which lead the choral expression, articulated in similar manner as the accompaniment.

Hyun Kook. "Sing for the joy of bringing music to life; who hears a song if no one sings? The words and melody would languish on a shelf without someone to let their message ring."
