Beschreibung:
FANFARE PRELUDE: O GOD OUR HELP IN AGES PAST is based on the hymn-tune 'St. Anne, ' which was used by G. F. Handel in the Chandos anthem 'O Praise the Lord, ' and by J. S. Bach in his triple fugue in E-flat 'The St. Anne Fugue. ' James Curnow's FANFARE PRELUDE: O GOD OUR HELP IN AGES PAST captures the thoughts of this magnificent hymn, which speaks of our country's reliance upon God. The unusual 4/4 meter setting with artfully crafted re-harmonizations and lush counterpoint gives each listener cause to reflect on the importance and meaning of this melody to patriotic Americans everywhere. Inspired!
