Organ - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1378519 Composed by John Burkett. Contemporary,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Score. 7 pages. John Burkett #963166. Published by John Burkett (A0.1378519). My Festive Voluntary is cast in a three-part ABA form.Ā The outer sections, in the key of C-sharp minor, convey the effect of a pompous slow-moving march.Ā By contrast, the middle section, in the key of A-flat major, has a song-like character, with its soprano melody supported by by long sustained chords underneath.Ā Then a 14-bar segment, acting as as bridge, assumes the rhythmic character of the first section, while modulating quickly through a succession of keys to reach the key of C-sharp minor once again.Ā The final section recapitulates the first section, though with a few minor changes.Ā This piece serves equally well as a recital piece or church prelude.Ā I have provided a full-length recording to aid the prospective buyer in the decision-making process.Ā I encourage you to search the Sheet Music Plus or the Sheet Music Direct website for my numerous hymn arrangements, some for organ and others for piano.
