This highly imaginative arrangement features a majestic organ accompaniment, complete with innovative reharmonizations for each of the four verses—especially fitting for the Feast of Transfiguration! The choir is mostly unison throughout, though Verse 3 has optional SSA divisi and Verse 4 has a soaring descant. The powerful fortissimo ending mirrors the grandeur of the great Feasts of the Church year, all for which this can be effectively used: Body and Blood of Christ, Epiphany, Christ the King, and—of course—Christmas itself.
