This unique setting of e.e. cummings' celebrated poem 'i thank You God' is a challenge, but the overall effect is stunning. Dissonance, tone color, and texture are ever-changing in this a cappella gem where chordcluster follows chord cluster. Changing meter and tempo further accentuate the unbridled happiness expressed in the text. Cummings' vividly painted words are well-suited to Rene Clausen's inimitable gift of melody. If youand your choir are up to a challenge, this stellar anthem of thanksgiving is for you.
