This Southern Harmony tune is paired with two texts: a Triduum hymn and a hymn to the Holy Spirit. Nicely arranged for three mixed voices, the choral writing develops as the piece progresses through its three stanzas. This setting can be sung on Holy Thursday, and again with the alternate text on Pentecost—or the Sundays leading up to that feast.

The great American hymn The Lone Wild Bird serves as the basis for this arrangement. The work begins with a plaintive alto solo and gradually builds by adding voices. The theme of preserving the earth is the heart of this prayer.

UPC: 888680916169. 6.75x10.5x0.019 inches. Henry Richard McFayden/Richard Burchard.
Here is a piece containing all the richness and harmonic interest in every Burchard tune but confined to just 4 voice parts. Even more remarkable is that the 4 parts are SSAB, so even a middle school choir could possibly use this piece. The text is popular, one often set to music. But Richard Burchard is one of the most commissioned composers of our time and so expect the best. Excellent for concert or festival use.

Opening with an ethereal staccato section, this fantasy on the hymntune PROSPECT sets an evocative scene. The tune is explored through a variety of styles, and the optional handchimes, wind chimes, and tambourine help to create a lovely effect.
