Voicing: SATB a cappella and Bariton Solo
Composer: William Beckstrand
This beloved prayer is set here for unaccompanied voices in a very spare and quiet dialog between baritone solo and mostly 3-part (SAB) choral texture. The prayer ends in 4-part texture (SATB), harmonically rich passages that finish in an ethereal and suspended reflection at the words, Eternal life.
