Here's a lively, rhythmic, and festive version of the classic "Ode to Joy" to start a service in joyful fashion or to send the congregation leaving a service with a spirited feeling. The 7/8 rhythms add plenty of life to this well-known melody, and the tune is easily recognizable throughout. It was written and recorded on a two manual instrument. I hope you enjoy it!
