This powerful setting of George Matheson's words juxtaposes ideas of yearning and resting within the text. The tension within the harmonies of this setting will linger through lengthy phrases, but repose is found in the end with meditative repetition, which represents the unknown of eternity. A stunning choice for advanced SATB Choirs!.
George Matheson’s hymn has been set to new music by several composers since it became public domain, and it has proven to be inspiring to audiences within sacred and educational venues. Matheson juxtaposes ideas of yearning and resting within the text. The tension within the harmonies of this setting will linger through lengthy phrases, but repose is found in the end with meditative repetition, which represents the unknown of eternity.The dynamics are important. During the more aggressive passages, be careful tomaintain the discipline of centered intonation, and at the softer moments, remainresonant without allowing the tone to become breathy. There are some dissonantharmonies and unconventional progressions throughout which will be served well ifisolated early in the rehearsal process. Most of all though, a strong performance will be one that brings the audience to George Matheson’s magnificent lyrics.
