Powerful Work - Highly Recommended
This work will be performed in Chicago's Millennium Park on May 27, 2012. The text is moving; the music is stunning. It requires a large orchestra and large choir. The harmonic palette is tonal and bi-tonal. The choral writing is difficult, but not impossible. Recommended for professional music organizations, universities, or highly talented high schools. Two favorite movements: #5 Hymn - Vexilla Regis Prodeunt; #8 Hymn - Lucis Largitor Splendide
