Thomas John Williams Hymn tune Ebenezer;
setting by Hal H. Hopson
A Concertato for Four-part Mixed Voices (SATB), Congregation and Organ with optional Trumpet in Bb or C-instrument.
To a text by popular sacred text writer Janie Alfred, Hal Hopson has created a fine new setting of the well-known hymn tune Ebenezer that will be an excellent addition to the repertoire of pieces for the season of Pentecost. The grandeur inherent in the melody is greatly enhanced by the spacious setting and the result is a powerful piece guaranteed to stir both choir and congregation. Moderately easy. Pentecost.
Cross Cry - Eugene Butler
for Four-part Mixed Voices (SATB) with Keyboard.
A Lenten meditation, using a fine, powerful text by David Davenport, on the meaning of the crucifixion, Cross Cry is a dramatic and somber anthem.
