Gloria Patri

A staple of the anthem repertoire, this setting of the Gloria Patri is suitable for liturgical use throughout the year, particularly for occasions such as Evensong or general worship. The text, a doxology traditionally sung after psalms, affirms the glory of the Trinity. Hart Pease Danks sets the Latin text, which is also provided in English translation, with a dignified and straightforward musical language. Scored for SATB choir, this anthem offers a familiar and resonant musical experience, making it an accessible yet meaningful choice for many church choirs.
