Overture Chorus: Let God arise Air: But let the righteous Chorus: O sing unto God Chorus: Magnify Him Duet: He is a father Air: Give thanks O Israel Chorus: Wonderful art thou
ix + 100 pp.
This splendid anthem for soloists, chorus, and orchestra was composed in 1773, when Linley was seventeen years old, and was modeled on Handel's Chandos anthems. Linley's gifts are most strikingly displayed in the choral movements, where his contrapuntal invention is especially deft.
