This piece is a tour de force: it is set for divisi SATB choir and elevates the organ part to an equal partner in the piece's execution. Virtuosic interludes by the organ punctuate rhythmically complex choral episodes replete with wide-ranging part writing. The magnificent sonic effect is reminiscent of some of Howell's most exuberant work, and will be ideal for advanced choirs.
