For this dramatic psalm, I have composed dramatic music. Furious orchestral sections lead the choir through a whirlwind of intensity as the psalm begins with a cry of despair for the human race and then moves to a prayer for God’s strong protection and a message of assurance.

This product includes the full score and orchestral parts. Choral scores must be purchased separately.

I am not releasing this for sale until it has had its premiere. If you are interested in premiering it, contact me.
