The composer visits the angels' powerful "peace on earth" proclamation and delivers an anthem of joyous "Glorias" and whispered prayers for peace. Highly expressive, this anthem has much to engage the singer. Always a timely message for contemporary society, this affirming testament of tranquility is a thoughtful choice for seasonal ecumenical choral opportunities.
