Written for SATB (with divisi) and organ this 5-minute celebratory piece takes its inspiration from the traditions of the early 20th-century English church choral tradition. A large organ part is called for, with the choral writing at a medium level of difficulty. The famous Gustav Holst hymn tune ('I vow to thee, my country') forms the basis of the melody around which the organ and voices weave a dignified and sumptuous anthem.
