Psalm 47 • God Mounts His Throne (Ascension)

James J. Richardson’s setting of Psalm 47, “God mounts His throne to shouts of joy; a blare of trumpets for the Lord!” as set for the feast of ascension.

This arrangement is for obbligato organ and voices (SATB optional) and includes an optional refrain descant in the form of a pseudo canon. This setting is festive (especially with organ trumpet flourishes) and is conceived in a pseudo-chant style (it is unmetered).

A comprehensive practice track is available on the ServiamScores Youtube channel which can be sent to your cantors/choirs.
