About From the Rising of the Sun
A robust setting for SATB choir of a biblical text, From the Rising of the Sun is a powerful sacred anthem. The words express a prophecy of the universal renown of God's name, with offerings made in His honour in every place among all nations. Frederick Arthur Gore Ouseley’s music rises to the declaration 'thus saith the Lord!', reflecting the grandeur of the prophecy. This is a stirring work, suitable for a main anthem in a service or a concert programme, and would be particularly fitting for occasions celebrating God's dominion or for general use throughout the church's year.
