J.B. Taylor: Be Silent: (Arr. Heather Sorenson): Chœur Mixte et Accomp.

Luminous and comforting, this new setting of a lesser-known Fanny Crosby text is sheer beauty. The substantial and evocative piano writing supports a melodic gesture that rises like a fragile prayer. Achievable arranging opens up the piece to many groups and gives thoughtful directors an opportunity to work on the musical and spiritual aspects of this important message. A sonic salve for the soul!
