Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1077136 By Paul Heatley. By Paul Heatley. Arranged by Paul Heatley. Christmas,Classical,Praise & Worship,Sacred,Spiritual. Octavo. 8 pages. Paul K Heatley #681294. Published by Paul K Heatley (A0.1077136). Liberator is from a collection of Psalm-based songs composed by Paul K Heatley while participating in an artist residency program run by Fuller Seminary for which Paul was sponsored by his local church in Pasadena, CA. The song is a setting of the Magnificat from Luke's gospel with words taken from The Voice, a New Testament translation created with artists and musicians in mind. Once Paul had decided to use this translation, the music seemed to flow naturally from the words, resulting in a classical-style piece with a format very like a modern song (it even has a middle-eight, though it's in a different key). Mary's prophetic song is arranged here for SATB with a strong soprano part, but can also be sung as a soprano solo.
