Description
Fedak's setting of the hymn tune ROCKINGHAM for choir, violin, and organ (#425-350) has been justifiably popular; he returns to this accompaniment combination in this original setting of Carl P. Daw, Jr.'s text in celebration of music, which takes it inspiration from Amos 5:24 ("But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.") The flowing melody runs throughout the work and builds to a joyous climax with a leaping violin descant. (The violin part is optional and cued in the organ for times when the instrument is not available.) Written for the 125th anniversary of Emmanuel Episcopal Church, Franklin, Va.; Rev. Edmund Pickup, rector; Jane R. Gibson, organist/choirmaster.
