General Information
Title: Almighty God, who by thy Son
Composer: Orlando Gibbons
Source of text: Collect for St Peter's Day
Number of voices: 5vv Voicing: SAATB
Genre: Sacred, Anthem, Verse anthem
Language: English
Instruments: Original was presumably set for consort of viols. Only the version with organ accompaniment survives.
Published: c.1620
Description: Forcing a work of this period into the straightjacket of the modern time signature/bar line system leads to many 'weak' word endings falling on 'strong' beats. Care should be taken that performance is dictated by the word stress, not by the bar lines.
