Glory! features music from masterworks, sacred anthems, a folk hymn, a song from the Broadway stage, and selections from some of the most eminent film composers of our day. Included are jubilant renditions of “Ode to Joy” from Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, Ennio Morricone’s “Nella fantasia” from The Mission, and the frequently requested anthem, “The Holy City.” Infused with the powerful sound of the Choir, plus 110 instrumentalists, these songs will bring you to your feet!
