SATB, Piano
Jubilate Deo began as a gift to the Sing Omaha Girls Choir for a concert that needed a uptempo sacred piece. I composed it in a weekend and immediately took it to the choir’s Sunday evening rehearsal. I set the text with a combination of Latin and English text in hopes of making it approachable for singers and audiences alike.
The mixed setting retains the energy and vigor of the original voicing, with each voice part having opportunities to sing the primary melody.
