Alan has crafted a superb arrangement of this treasured hymn that first appeared in the Sacred Harp Hymn Book of 1844. After a free introduction by choir and trumpet, the first two stanzas introduce the tune in strict tempo while the trumpet outlines melodic fragments above the chorus. In each succeeding verse we find imaginative varied choral textures with trumpet prominently displayed.

Recording for Lift Up the Trumpet sung by the Oakwood College Reunion Choir.

SKU: PL.426TR

This piece was commissioned for Lessons and Carols at Trinity College, Hartford in 2001. Smith recalls, The commission came within a week of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and this was one of two pieces I began working on at that time, the other being Variations on an American Folksong for symphony orchestra....I found, after composing From East to West that I kept hearing it in my mind as an orchestral piece, and I wrote a version for symphony orchestra and choir so I could focus on other projects.
Three options are available in performing this piece: Choral and organ -- A small Full Score (organ and trumpets)--(0426sm) -- Trumpet parts (0426 Trpt) -- Large full score (0426FS) -- Instrumental parts (0426FP).

Austere and noble, the hymn tune THE MORNING TRUMPET is from The Sacred Harp, 1844. The composer has crafted an unusual setting for SATB and Brass Quintet. The voice parts are very accessible for any size choir and always take center stage (for example, the piece begins with unison men a cappella, not the usual choice in a piece with brass quintet). The text looks forward to the time when we transcend death to be with Jesus. Your choir will have fun singing the recurring refrain O shout glory, glory!
