Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart
Item Number: 00-19084
Format: Choral Octavo
Voicing: SATB
Arranged by Jay Althouse
This regal hymn concertato opens with a majestic antiphonal fanfare between choir and accompaniment. Driving accompaniment figures propel the first verse along and invite the congregation to join. After a middle verse with rich choral writing, the anthem modulates to a final verse for choir and congregation that is crowned by a descant. Larger choirs will enjoy the brass sextet orchestration (available digitally below) while smaller choirs will enjoy the solo trumpet obbligato (optional, part included in choral score). An anthem of distinction for Ascension, Christ the King, Pentecost, Thanksgiving, Trinity, or any time!
Brass Sextet Instrumentation: 3 Trumpets, 2 Trombones, Tuba, & Director's Score
