In this artful choral setting, Psalm 8 speaks with shining lucidity. The anthem, populated with a splendid theme, is supported by luscious harmonies, a wide dynamic range and well-crafted piano support. Throughout, the composer offers a choral contemplation that delivers a message of hope and sacred aspiration. "Now, when I gaze upon the starry skies, or walk beneath the vaulted veil of night, from earthly dust Your music bids me rise to go and live as one who knows the Light."
