Richard Proulx, who in recent years has given us more wonderful arrangements than original pieces, here breaks the pattern with a setting of Psalm 148. And, it is classic Proulx! The sturdy macaronic refrain for choir and assembly, leads to lilting triple meter verses for soprano then tenor, a choral verse in duple rhythm, and a return to the triple feel of the earlier, for the final verse utilizing both soloists and choir. Typically, the organ part is something organists will enjoy playing.
