Review:      Sometimes, worship needs to happen in a profound, awe-inspiring way, with powerful, compelling music that evokes images of great cathedrals with grand architecture. And sometimes, the music simply embodies youthful joy. This commissioned original work is a lighthearted, creative celebration of the very act of praise itself, a reminder that praise can happen anywhere, and the “ordinary miracles” of life are to be celebrated. Ostinato patterns coupled with various techniques (including mallets on the table foam!) make it fun and relatively easy to put together. This catchy piece will offer a cheerful start to worship services and festival concerts! Begins in C Major, then modulates to G Major. 80 measures.
