Description

"O Praise the Lord of Heaven, Op. 27" is a musical composition for solo voice, chorus, orchestra, and organ by Charles V.

Stanford. This particular piece is based on Psalm 150 from The Book of Psalms, and contains lyrics based on its words.

This volume is highly recommended for classical music lovers and those with an interest in Christian music.

Sir Charles Villiers Stanford (1852 - 1924) was an Irish composer, conductor, and teacher of music.

He was educated at the University of Cambridge and continued his studies in Berlin and Leipzig.

He was a very influential composer, responsible for making Cambridge University Musical Society an internationally acclaimed organisation.

Stanford was also a profuse composer, producing a large corpus of work in many genres; however, he is perhaps best remembered for his Anglican choral works for church performance.

His music eventually became overshadowed by that of Edward Elgar and a number of his former pupils in the 20th century.

Other notable compositions by Stanford include: "The Veiled Prophet of Khorassan" (1879), "Savonarola" (1883), "The Canterbury Pilgrims" (1883).

This volume is highly recommended for music students and those with an interest in Christian music.

Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.

We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of the organ.
