Use: Palm Sunday
Required Resources: SATB choir
Language: English
We have here a creative setting of the Responsorial Psalm for Palm Sunday, for SATB choir and congregation, fully a cappella.
Set in d minor, the congregational refrain is totally in unison — so appropriate for the calm solemnity of Holy Week.
Each of the four verses has the choir start in unison, making the transition from refrain to verse seamless.
The composer employs various dynamic levels, from piano to fortissimo, to reinforce the drama of the text.
The loudest section sets the text, "All you descendants of Jacob, give glory to him."
Bypass the organ for this Palm Sunday moment, and let the rich text of Psalm 22 speak to the congregation, sung creatively and expertly by the choir, rather than a cantor.
