"Immortal,
invisible, God only wise" describes Gods omnipresence and omniscience, with
His hand present in all things on earth in all aspects of life. The four
variations follow the four verses of text written by Walter Chalmers Smith
(1824-1908) as found in the Hymnal 1982.
I leave it to your artistic imagination to interpret how the melodies and
harmonies of each variation paint the text.
Much
like my Opus 2 (Partita "Vom Himmel hoch"), this set of variations was
initially conceived as an improvisation. As such, some rubato should be
employed in performance. Registration suggestions are indicated in the score
though are by no means binding. To maintain the atmosphere of wonderment established
by the first variation, the tempo of the final variation should not be too fast.
