Notes: This SSATB version of Purcell's work has been editted from earlier SSAATTBB versions of this anthem, in order to provide a setting suitable for choirs of more modest resources, whilst still retaining some of the essential full-bodied-ness of the 8-part edition. The first soprano/treble line may be omitted if an SATB setting is required.
