Large Ensemble Choir,Voice - Digital Download SKU: A0.877660 Composed by 1774, Katholisches Gesangbuch, and TE DEUM. Arranged by Samuel Micah Hunter. Sacred. Score and parts. 27 pages. Samuel Hunter #24611. Published by Samuel Hunter (A0.877660). This concert band arrangement of the hymn TE DEUM, known popularly as Holy God, We Praise Thy Name includes parts for SATB choir as well, although it could easily be performed without the choir if needed. Each verse is set uniquely, with each section getting a chance to shine. It is decidedly traditional and hymn-like in style, but there is considerable variety in the instrumentation and in the sources of rhythmic pulse that move the piece along, so that, although it is repetitive, it never becomes boring. This arrangement spans the dynamic spectrum, from soft and introspective to bold and majestic, from tone that is rich and deep to colors that are shimmering and pristine. This piece is easy to learn, and begs to be treated with a high level of musicality, though it is not technically demanding. Sure to bring smiles from performers and audiences alike, Lord of the Plains will become a returning staple of your repertoire. Purchase of the score includes a full set of parts, which the original purchaser may reproduce.
