A Chorale Prelude. Composed by James Swearingen. Concert Band. Heritage of the March Series. Audio recording available separately (items CL.WFR337 & CL.WFR329). Sacred. Score and set of parts. Composed 2003. Duration 2 minutes, 47 seconds. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-3310-00. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-3310-00).An impressive setting of a beloved hymn that is not only a wonderful "change of pace" concert selection, it is also an outstanding composition for teaching expressive performance practices. Expressive, yet reverent, the introduction of this work leads into a lovely flute solo followed by a bold and glorious rendition of one of the most celebrated hymns of all time. As one would expect from this popular composer, the lush harmonies and tasteful scoring give it a sound that is quite impressive. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
