Premiered at the 2011 ACDA Conference in Chicago by the ACDA Men's Honor Choir, Jason McCoy's breathtaking composition "Come, Ye Thankful People, Come" was described by many as the highlight of their conference experience. The traditional text of the title hymn and text from the hymn "Praise to God, Immortal Praise" have been masterfully set by McCoy with an extremely moving piano accompaniment and vocal lines that are accessible but sound complicated to the listener. |
