Composer: James Curnow

 

Program Notes:

Based on the wonderful old gospel song, “‘Tis so Sweet to Trust in Jesus” by Louisa M.R. Snead (1850-1917) and William James Kirkpatrick (1838-1921), this solo with instrumental ensemble accompaniment features one verse and two choruses from the song.
After a brief introduction based on intervals from the song, the soloist plays an original melody by the composer prior to a light and energetic rendition of the first chorus. The verse appears in a more sustained style by the soloist, accompanied by a smooth, chorale-like background. 
The second chorus is played by the soloist while the opening original theme is juxtaposed underneath. The introduction is reintroduced prior to an ascending finale by the soloist.
