Scope and Contents

Praise to the Lord / Richard Proulx. This work is based on the tune "LOBE DEN HERREN." The arrangement appears to be a keyboard texture, presumably an organ texture due to the wide intervals in the bass clef. The name "Praise to the Lord" is a common text.

This incomplete arrangement of Praise to the Lord, the Almighty (LOBE DEN HERREN) is presumably written for congregation, SATB choir, organ, horns, and timpani. There does seem to be enough music here, however, to work with for publishing purposes. Only the fourth verse’s words are sketched in. Proulx’s notes indicate the following: Introduction – organ; stanzas 1 & 2 – horns & org (Hymnbook Harm.); stanza 3 – SATB. There is a separate page for the organ accompaniment for stanza 4, as well as a score, which includes vocal descant, brass, timpani, and organ. The horn parts appear complete. There is no indication of what the SATB harmonization for stanza 3 is.
