This beautiful setting of the psalm for Holy Thursday is enhanced by the addition of optional violin, flute, and clarinet. Keyboard and guitar round out the accompaniment as female and male cantors intone the refrain. Orin has structured the verses with an interplay between the cantors, while the SAB choir offers gentle vocal support on neutral syllables. The overall sound is lush and mesmerizing.

When you first listen to this arrangement, if you are like us, you will be captivated by the charming playfulness between the piano and clarinet. The writing for women’s voices is accessible, but quite effective. The most challenging aspect of the piece likely will be coordinating the ensemble of the instrumentalists, as the forward-spinning, 16th-note figures must move at a brisk and even pace.
