Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1128059 Composed by G Holst. Arranged by Philip Le Bas. 20th Century,Patriotic,Religious,Sacred. Octavo. 3 pages. Philip Le Bas #728668. Published by Philip Le Bas (A0.1128059). An arrangement by Philip Le Bas of Gustav Holst's hymn setting of I vow to thee, my country (Thaxted, with words by Sir Cecil Spring Rice.) It is scored for SATB choir and organ, with congregational participation split between men and women. This enables a more joined up and uplifting rendition of Holst's famous tune from Jupiter in his Planets Suite than the standard setting in most hymn books. The hymn's popularity is very evident for example by being sung both at Princess Diana's wedding and, poignantly, at her funeral.
