One of my favorite collections, because of the information about the songs and their cultural context.
"Anthems and Sacred Choruses for the mixed choir"
Music includes melodies from Mozart, Bach, von Gluck, Handel, Mendelssohn, to name a few. Texts are classic sacred, not usually LDS specifically. 19 pieces in all.
Tenebrae in E Flat (Darkness Came O'er the Earth)
The Heavens Resound
Jesu, Son of God (Ave Verum)
God So Loved the World
