- ISBN: 9780193851597 | 0193851598
- Cover: Paperback
- Copyright: 3/9/2006
for soprano solo, SATB chorus, and orchestra
Published in 1929, Benedicite is a substantial setting of texts from the 'Song of the Three Holy Children' (part of the Apocrypha) and John Austin's hymn text 'Hark, my soul, how everything'. Forceful and dynamic passages with thick choral-orchestral textures are juxtaposed against more solemn passages, often with a gentle soprano solo floating over the choral texture. Scores and parts for both the full orchestra accompaniment and strings and piano accompaniment are available on hire.
