Glory to God In the Highest (Gloria)

This is the Gloria we sing at my church each week. This is a 10-piece professional choir that sings for the 6 PM Sunday Eucharist. The organ is a 1974 Holtkamp tracker of 28 ranks. Sorry for the view--not too many good places to put a camera up there!

[Jude1017]

Who is the composer?

[bradtaylor32]

Benjamin Harrison I believe. It was copyrighted in 1971.

[gwilll2006]

its a very nice setting.  Does he do other parts of the service like the Sanctus etc?

[bradtaylor32]

Yes, there's a whole mass...probably out of print--I don't think it's a mass ordinary though.

[bassbaritoneguy]

Random question, but would this happen to be an Episcopal church?

[bradtaylor32]

Yes.

[JKorps1]

Its a nice gloria but I always liked s280.

Hi, thanks for posting. I really like this setting of the gloria. Who wrote it, is it in the 1982 Episcopal hymnal.

[PsychoPunk1965]

I used to visit an Episcopal Church that did "Glory To God the Highest." Very nice!

[Booyaaa100]

dont listen to the negative comments this is very well done. these people are all very talented. inluding the organist. which must be you.

[obxemt]

Very good...though I'm an S280 kind of guy myself. :-)

Why is it that all the negative comments I see on organ posts come from people in the UK that don't have any vids of their own posted? hmmmm

Brad - Keep up the good work.

[gwilll2006]

I disagree, I think he is very talented from the videos I have seen. I can only imagine how good it sounds to be right in the church or recital hall. If you dont like them no one is forcing you to watch.

[gwilll2006]

Why do people like 058OLG watch videos and just get kicks out of posting crap messages like that? Do they get a thrill out of it? Obviously he knows nothing about good organ playing to post a comment like that.
