Description

Originally entitled Thanksgiving for Victory, A Song of Thanksgiving is a powerful and moving work that celebrates the Allies' victory in World War II.

It was first recorded in 1944 while the war was still ongoing, but was not broadcast until victory had been achieved in May of the following year.

Comprising seven movements, it sets texts from the Bible alongside words by Shakespeare and Kipling, lending the work a sense of timelessness and grandeur.

Scores and parts for both the full and reduced accompaniments are available on hire.
