This sextet takes a different twist on what is typically a reverent piece and makes it majestic. From the traditional 4-4 meter it is presented in 6-8 giving it a lilt. The trumpets weave in and out with the melodic material while the other brass parts punctuate the lines. The second section is much in a fugal structure (in 4-4) and then gravitates back to 6-8 swapping the theme between the upper and lower parts. The contrapuntal activity increases as the tension mounts ending with a bold proclamation.
