This jubilant song of exaltation is designed to make mixed and changing meters intuitive, familiar, easy. Organized in 3 + 2 + 2, the dance-like main theme is quickly mastered. A small number of familiar Latin words and some English text combine into an exuberant concert/contest selection. Listen for the glorious soprano descant, optional trumpet fanfare, and rhythmic timpani part that add majesty, while anchoring the meter.
