About Glorious Apollo
Glorious Apollo paints a scene of divine inspiration for a musical temple, a vision sent by Apollo himself to guide the founders. It speaks of raising a structure through harmonious song, uniting hands and hearts in praise. The text then transitions to the present, celebrating how music fosters unity, joy, and social pleasure. This secular glee for ATB voices, set in English, is a celebration of camaraderie and the uplifting power of shared musical experience. It embodies the spirit of the glee tradition, where communal singing brings people together in good humour and fellowship.
