Stephen Paulus, of blessed memory, was really an amazing composer. Very big name here in MN, and this piece* is something I did not find out about until maybe a year after his passing.
[I mean the piece, not the composer. If you're in choral music, you know who he was]
It is one of the most beautiful arrangements I have ever heard. I still play it in the car in July.
Yes, it is SSAATTBB and with two solos that go up there, but if your choir is capable of performing this, do it.
