Nancy Ruth Durance's Gloria, available as SA (ICC1089), SSA (ICC1099), and SATB (ICC2031), is an exuberant setting that combines a dance-like compound meter, rhythmic accents, syncopation, and contemporary harmonies. The work opens with an opening “gloria” chant before launching into the energetic main song, creating momentum and excitement from the very first measures. Joyful and vibrant throughout, Gloria is an excellent choice for concert and festival openers.
