Product Description
This Meditation uses melodic phrases from Kremser Tune, used to sing "We Gather Together," and "Dona Nobis Pacem." The latter is a round and gives a texture of flowing counterpoint to the homophonic stateliness of the hymn tune. Note that this is not an arrangement or medley of these two melodies, but a distinct composition built on their melodic phrases (motives). For Christian worship, this short piece is appropriate for services of Christian unity and peace, and, in the United States, for Thanksgiving Day. This composition is also available as a mixed wind quartet for flute, clarinet in Bb, tenor saxophone, and trumpet in Bb. The first performance was on November 5, 2023, at Saint Andrew Presbyterian Church, Lynchburg, Virginia.
