When hymnody is made into an anthem, it connects with the congregation in a profound way. The early-American hymn tune NETTLETON appears in nearly every denominational hymnal and this incarnation speaks with inspiring grace. The part-writing is solid and approachable with glistening innovations in the upper voices and variety which moves the parts from unison to two-part and then to full four-part textures. A refreshing quieter ending with the use of a lesser-known verse puts a devotional spin on this classic and opens it up to a variety of usages. Score and Parts (fl 1-2, ob, cl 1-2, bn, perc 1-2, hp, vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download.
