Canticle of Praise
Written for the 75th anniversary of a Texas, Lutheran church, the character of this anthem for SATB choir with handbells or keyboard is one of praise to God for His mighty works. The bells alone may accompany the voices or combine with the keyboard. The bells are scored in full texture in 6/8 time with a tempo marking of dotted quarter = 60 and staccato techniques interspersed.
