Lofty musical aspirations are met and surpassed in this Psalm setting, which is the next installment in the composer's exploration of the Psalter. Modern melody meets classic text to celebrate the creative power of God in a sacred tone poem filled with fascinating sonic moments. Lush and expressive, the opening is a soundtrack of praise. Later the piece recounts the days of creation and the unfolding of the universe while counterpointing with the Latin phrase, Cantate Dominum. This is a stunning choral moment that builds intensity to a rhapsodic melody soaring to dizzying heights. This significant anthem ends quiescently with a final affirming Amen. Score and Parts (fl 1-2/picc, ob, cl 1-2, bn, hn 1-2, tpt 1-3, tbn 1-2, tba/btbn, mallet perc, aux perc, timp, hp, vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download.
