Ask and It Will be Given to You

Description

• tender setting of this well-known text of faith and supplication:
excellent way to teach the scripture verse to children for life!
• simple harmonic and rhythmic pattern of keyboard introduction
creates an ostinato effect, framing this anthem in ABA form
• healthy range and tessitura for the elementary and middle school
age child, reflects the composers’ experiential understanding of the
treble voice (Salisbury Cathedral Choirmaster)
• closing section combines a descant with the opening tune and
accompaniment, which can be used to reinforce basic breath
management and legato line
