"Gloria" - a wonderfully versatile title for worship, concert, or festival! This original composition features an alternating meter pattern from 6/8 to 4/4, creating a lilting feel to the musical whole. Borrowed harmonies add to the interest, as do staccato techniques. A middle legato section in 4/4 provides a reflective contrast before the final section returns to the opening figures.
