Michael Costello has a proven track record with festive arrangements of beloved tunes. This setting of LAUDA ANIMA is no exception. An extended introduction (with instructions for cuts) is followed by four stanzas with short interludes between stanzas 2-3 and 3-4. Verse three ("Alleluia cannot always be our song") is set for SATB a cappella voices. The final verse is unison with descant, ending with a fanfare reminiscent of the introduction and a four part "Alleluia, Amen!" The text is a translation from the Latin by John M. Neale (1861). Can be used as a congregation hymn or as choir anthem.
