A WORK FOR INSTRUMENTAL ENSEMBLE
of piano, soprano sax, optional alto saxophone, organ, bass, and percussion (part not included in download)
The original ensemble version of this work was created for the 1990 Paul Winter Consort album, 'Earth: Voices of a Planet', to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Earth Day. The album was nominated for a Grammy Award in 1991. Performed by the Consort on international concert tours, this work quickly became an audience favorite and part of the Consort's standard repertoire. More recently, Paul Halley has used this work in the Easter Jazz Mass program he has put together for All Saints Cathedral, Halifax and, in a previous life, at Trinity Episcopal Torrington.
The final hymn in the work is based on 'Ach Herr, du Allerhöchster Gott' by Michael Praetorius (1571‐1621)
