CGB1150 Good Christians All, Rejoice and Sing (3-5 octaves)
Description
Arranger Patricia Hurlbutt effectively captures the dance-like quality of the 16th century tune, Gelobt Sei Gott. In addition to expressing the triumph of Easter, encourage ringers to create a lightness and buoyancy by observing the strong downbeat and lighter upbeats of the triple meter. Marts are prominent in the middle section which leads to a key change and a grand final stanza.
