Thou Art Worthy

(3-tpt, 2-hn, 2-tmb, BH, tba): God Be With You; God Leads Us Along; God Will Take Care of You; We Have An Anchor

Three Plus Flutes for three soprano with opt. 4th/ob. with alto and bass. A beginning that is yearning in emotion and subtle shifts in harmonic and linear lines. A modulation to a higher tessitura in strong block chords gives a feeling of strength. The piece then settles back into the original key with a series of imitation of the various parts. The piece becomes more solemn as the pitch levels drop until settling into a final cadence.
