The Garden Call

By Brad Nix, Arr. by Joseph M. Martin

The tears of Gethsemane drop slowly in this haunting anthem, inviting the worshipper to consider the suffering Christ. A shadowy tableau presents His anguish and grace through highly visual poetry while the melody rises and falls in expressive contours of beauty. The piano features prominently in the emotional impact of the anthem, adding its own effective theme and harmonic coloring.
