Song of Courage (Eric Ball) - Contest Edition

Song of Courage(Eric Ball) - Contest EditionSP&S | 10 minutesInspired by his own 1939 work "A Prayer for Courage" and written around the outbreak of war, the music reflects many moods. There is, to commence, joyfulness, and later some sense of fear and effort against great odds. The old chorus 'Stand like the brave' typifies the call to action in the face of danger, and 'A prayer for courage' - the central part of the composition - is a reminder of the true source of Christian fortitude.
