Printed product. The ethereal nature of the Samuel Francis Smith poem is perfectly paired with masterful text painting until the two become one in spirit and understanding. The move from earth to heaven is flawless. The music is deep; the text rich and profound. The melody line moves to harmony and back again until it finally finds a resting place in the sight and sound of eternity . . . making heaven a heaven. Glorious! Scored for SATB choir and piano with optional string quartet or orchestra parts available. Also available for SSAA and TTBB.
