Choral Choir (SAB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1126896 Composed by Philip Le Bas. A Cappella,Christian,Easter,Religious,Sacred. Octavo. 6 pages. Philip Le Bas #727543. Published by Philip Le Bas (A0.1126896). A new acclamation for Palm Sunday, composed by Philip Le Bas. Jesus enters Jerusalem riding on a donkey and the people acclaim him as the long-awaited Messiah (the "Son of David".) We, in hind-sight, know that they will turn on him within a few days and will have him crucified. It is a moment of excitement and celebration, as the people see all their hopes fulfilled. The Christian liturgy reflects this, often with a congregational procession into the church accompanied by the words below. The music is simple and joyful, and is scored for just three different choral voices (SABar/SAMen), typical of those available in parish churches. After an initial syncopated section, there follows a middle section of dotted rhythms, before returning to the syncopated theme, and ending in a glorious rising Tierce de Picardie. The work is short, breathless and exciting, matching the mood of that early moment in the Palm Sunday celebration.
