Fanfare Prelude (O God, Our Help in Ages Past) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Curnow, James

Fanfare Prelude: O God, Our Help in Ages Past is based on the hymn-tune St. Anne, which was used by G.F. Handel in the Chandos anthem, O Praise the Lord, and by J.S. Bach in his triple fugue in E-flat, The St. Anne Fugue. James Curnow's Fanfare Prelude: O God, Our Help in Ages Past captures the thoughts of this magnificent hymn, which speaks of America's reliance upon God. The unusual 4/4 meter setting with artfully crafted re-harmonisations and lush counterpoint gives each listener cause to reflect on the importance and meaning of this melody to patriotic Americans everywhere.
